What better way to showcase your business than with a professional portable bar in a fun and relaxed atmosphere?
Are Summer Festivals a Good Fit for Your Business?
Does your business benefit from local clients? If the answer is yes, event marketing at local summer events like fairs, carnivals, food & beverage festivals, charity events, regional trade shows, and outdoor concerts can be beneficial. Regularly interacting in the relevant marketplace can provide the perfect opportunity to draw attention to your business and gain new customers. Not to mention, events are an exciting way for you and your employees to advertise your business while mingling with prospective customers.
In certain instances, the type of event that suits your business will be clear. For example, a food & beverage festival is a great way to market your restaurant or brewery. In other instances, you may need to do a little more investigating into an event’s participants to find out if they fit into your target market. Event organizers can help you gather this information. Try to ask all the questions you can get event organizers to answer that is relevant to your business’s success. Another simple recommendation is to ask your existing customers what events they attend and what they find relevant. Be specific. Ask if attendees would be likely to purchase. In addition to being in the right place for new customers, you may strengthen your bond with existing clients by being where they are doing business as well.
Once you have decided which type of event you want to promote your business at, find out exactly what you are allowed to do at the event as far as promotions and if the cost of event marketing fits into your budget. For example, can you bring your own portable booth to the event to sell your products? Having an idea of what you get in exchange for registration, along with any restrictions on your activities, can be useful when planning event marketing. Printing many flyers for an event only to find out at the event that it is paperless and not allowing flyer promotion, would be quite frustrating.
