Event Marketing: Eventbrite’s findings based upon current database!
PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED TO EXAMINER
If you actively engage in Event Marketing, sold your own tickets, or have marketed some sort of event in the past, you probably know of an event site, called Eventbrite. This site is personally one of my favorite sites for SEO-related tasks associated with Advanced Event Marketing techniques. Many options are given in allowing for great marketing and distribution of event details to partner sites!
Eventbrite released some pretty interesting information, yesterday, regarding the most likely genre preference of an event goer. This information was based on findings within their database, as the data was collected by the Harris Interactive Service Bureau between the time period of May 22 and May 30, 2013. The collective group of analyzed individuals consisted of 1019 individuals.
Eventbrite has come to the conclusion that their largest audience consists of Electronic Dance Music (EDM) enthusiasts and event planners. The company’s data analysis partner finds that the reasoning behind this is that the EDM community tends to be more Social and Mobile than other groups of event-goers.
EDM enthusiasts are more likely to “share” their findings and attendance records via Social Networks and the means of Mobile (Marketing). EDM fans are 78% more likely to attend an event if their peers were attending and/or based on who was performing, as opposed to other groups who are only 43% more likely to attend an event if their friends go, too.
Those associated with Electronic Dance Music are also more likely to pay to attend an Online Streaming Event than other groups.
When considering an Event Marketing Plan, it is obvious that Event Branding should be prelevant in gaining the interests of your audiences. Every Event Marketing Plan should “Brand Social (Shorty Produkshins, 2009.),” be “shareable” on a mobile device, and should begin taking place NO LATER THAN three weeks– two weeks at the maximum — for ultimate results, because it is important to allow anticipation to build and Viral Marketing to take effect!
Furthermore, if you are regularly throwing and promoting events, a definite Mobile Marketing Plan of Action should be placed in line with your Marketing Plan. These results only prove these points to be true!
