How can companies create emotional brand experiences when traditional advertising methods are losing effectiveness?

Experiential marketing engages consumers directly in brand experiences like live events and product rollouts, and is gaining traction as an effective way to generate a positive connection with a brand. A study revealed that 40% of consumers feel more brand loyalty after such experiences, with 91% more likely to purchase, marking a significant shift in consumer engagement strategies.

These emotional brand experiences, crucial for modern business strategies, hinge on creating consistent, emotionally resonant interactions across all customer touchpoints, as demonstrated by successful implementations by organizations like Netflix, Chicago Bulls, and NutriSense. This approach, emphasizing customer engagement and emotional connection, is increasingly vital for market differentiation and long-term profitability.

So, can experiential marketing transform brand engagement into a memorable and impactful consumer experience?

In the latest episode of "Are We There Yet?," host Grant Harrell gets an inside look at the innovative world of experiential marketing with Heath Hill, President of Lime Media. Harrell's journey reveals how Lime Media’s unique approach to creating immersive marketing experiences nationwide captivates audiences.

Grant HarrellHead of Transportation/Mobility & Host of "Are We There Yet?" video podcast series

Asking the most exciting, innovative, cutting-edge companies in transportation/mobility the “Are We There Yet?” question is a lot of fun, and the focus of Grant Harrell's top video podcast series! And, it’s not a bad question as so much is truly happening in this space today. What used to be trains, planes, and automobiles is now robots, drones, and spaceships, and Grant is curious about how soon we are all going to see these technologies in action, at scale. Very few of us enjoy a car that drives itself, have dinner delivered via drone, or have taken a vacation to space, but these amazing technologies and applications, as Grant discovers within his "Are We There Yet?" podcast series, are here, or as he likes to say, "we're there"! Grant also serves as the Head of Transportation/Mobility for MarketScale, one of the fastest-growing, most-successful, fun b2b media companies in the industry! MarketScale works behind the scenes for many of the top brands today, building their brand, engaging their communities, and telling their incredible stories! Within Grant's leadership of MarketScale's Transportation/Mobility division, he enjoys working with top companies within automotive to aviation, micro-mobility to marine, drones to space exploration, and everyone in between. And, Grant encourages you to reach out to him directly and set up a meeting, because as he says, "whats the point of all of this transportation/mobility technology development if we aren't headed somewhere fun to meet someone interesting"!

End users made up 37% of InfoComm 2026's 28,132 attendees

End users made up 37% of InfoComm 2026's 28,132 attendees

AVIXA reports InfoComm 2026 drew 28,132 verified attendees from 94 countries to Las Vegas, with end users making up 37%. Microsoft and Cisco keynotes centered on AI agents for the meeting room. For enterprise workplace and IT teams, the show's award-winning gear and cross-platform pitches are now landing in fall buying cycles.

  • 01A 37% end-user share at a pro AV trade show is a usable benchmark: more than one in three badges belonged to organizations that deploy the equipment, which changes who exhibitors build their demos for.
  • 02The sharper question to put to a collaboration vendor after this show is which platform an AI meeting feature actually runs on. According to AVIXA, Cisco's keynote framed intelligent systems and open collaboration ecosystems as working across any platform including Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and Zoom, while Microsoft tied its voice agents to Teams Phone and Teams Rooms.
  • 03The 170-meter Cat5e reach BZBGEAR's Matt Richards cited to CE Pro for the XTREME-PRO, part of the XLink-ONE family that took Best of Show at InfoComm 2026 from AV Technology, is a manufacturer spec, not an independent test; for facilities with runs past 100 meters it is worth a bench check before fiber is designed out.
