Extreme and adventure activities as experiential marketing tools - Softcover

This book aims at evaluating the experiential marketing potential of extreme sport activities, in special regards to the new sponsoring platform: the Base Flyer in Berlin. The book places particular emphasis on the importance and latest development of experience marketing, a tool to let brands and consumers enjoy interacting together. The findings revealed that if a brand finds a way to associate and authentically connect its values with the extraordinary and explicit character of extreme and thrill sport activities, the marketing campaign will have a sustainable impact on consumers' brand perception. In order to give insights into the advantages of applying an extreme and thrill sport activity as an experience marketing tool, the author established a hypothetic sponsoring concept. It explains how to use the Base Flyer station, an extreme activity plat-form, as a communicator for a brand's personality and value orientation.
