FAQ’S

Why Experiential marketing?
+

In a world saturated with digital noise, real-life experiences cut through. Experiential marketing campaigns help brands create emotional connections, not just awareness - strengthening relationships and driving long-term brand awareness and loyalty. Whether you’re targeting niche audiences or mass communities, these moments offer multiple ways for people to engage with your brand in ways that feel authentic, personal and unforgettable. They demand attention, drive organic User Generated Content (UGC) and trigger sharing through word of mouth.

Can Experiential campaigns integrate with social media or influencer activity?

+

In the last year, CPM and specifically the QCT division have collaborated with Diageo to design and deliver internal training materials and resources that are used throughout the team to find a fix to technical service issues over the phone; reducing the need for an engineer to attend.

In-store customer experience: much more than a simple purchase, it’s a genuine relationship of trust.

In a world where technology is evolving at lightning speed, the in-store experience remains a decisive moment for our customers. It’s not just about products, but about trust, support, and personalisation.

Stores are no longer just points of sale: they are spaces where innovation and proximity meet. The integration of smart solutions, AI, and teams trained to understand customer habits makes all the difference.

I had the pleasure of spending time in-store with the CPM France teams—thank you to Sabrina Negly and Benoit Candela, your work is essential for the customer experience!

This visit took place at the Fnac in Grenoble—a big thank you to Stephane Dussuyer for the warm welcome and our discussion on how we can do even better to improve the in-store customer experience.
