Brand Activation

Brand Activation with Dimensional Innovations

Brand activation is a great way to build awareness and lasting connections with your target audience of potential customers. The reason brand activation is so successful is that it tends to be interactive, which allows potential customers, as well as existing customers, to engage directly with your products and brand.

Creating a personal connection with your audience makes your brand more memorable when these potential customers realize that they need the products or services you offer. Connecting to your audience is the true purpose of brand activation, which is why so many of our clients opt for interactive brand activations. As you build trust and emotional connections with your audience, you start to stick in their minds.

People genuinely care about establishing a connection with brands. In fact, 98 percent of people feel more inclined to purchase a product or service after interacting with a brand’s activation. This is why brand activations need to leave a lasting impression. Experiential marketing, which we do best at Dimensional Innovations, is the perfect vessel for brand activations.

Cabela’s was looking for a way to make the most of two new but smaller locations. Since there would be less floor space, they wanted to give their customers a way to see all of their products up close without taking up too much room. Dimensional Innovations helped build three interactive “Trailhead” kiosks for each new location.

These kiosks work with virtual reality headsets to allow customers and associates to become experts on products and outdoor activities. The Camping Trailhead gives customers the ability to look at various tents sold at Cabela’s. Customers can view 360-degree images of the inside of the tent, which gives them a good idea of what it is like actually to be in the tent.

The Hunting Trailhead shows hunting blinds in 360-degree imagery. In each blind, a rifle and shotgun are staged with hotspots. As customers select a hotspot, a game opens that allows the customer to hunt using the weapon from inside the blind.

The Fishing Trailhead gives customers the chance to go on a fishing trip with the 2017 Angler of the Year, Brandon Palaniuk. They can watch him catch a 10+ pound bass, explore his boat, and learn about the equipment he uses.

When Live Nation reached out wanting larger-than-life brand activations that could double as photo opportunities for social media, we knew that creating sharable, postable brand activations was crucial. The brand activations we came up with for Xfinity Center also included other corporate sponsors, such as Bud Light and Gulf Oil. The Bud Light activation showcases each concert at the Xfinity Center and allows people to take photos of the shows they are attending with the date. The large orange Gulf Oil star activation features branding for both Gulf Oil and Xfinity. Both quickly became social media photo favorites of Xfinity Center guests.
