Why Audio Marketing Is an Important Element of Your Brand Experience

Audio Marketing is the strategic use of audio – both voice and music – at a point of purchase. It can be applied to inform, entertain and create an inviting environment that reflects your brand. Music and messaging can also encourage specific behaviors, from staying longer at a restaurant to visiting certain departments of a store to buying promoted products.

Every interaction with a customer is an opportunity for a brand experience.

Audio Marketing adds an audible layer to your brand.

Many elements come together to create an effective Audio Marketing program:

• Music Genre: If you could select one genre to represent your brand, what would it be? Jazz? Classic rock? Classical? Bluegrass? Country? The type of music you play sets the mood and the energy in your location.
• Voiceover Style: If your brand had a voice, what would it sound like? An excited young man? A sophisticated woman? A middle-aged southern farmer? The voice of your audio messages can convey a distinct tone to customers.
• Content Focus: What’s the main goal of your Audio Marketing program? Would you like to create a certain type of environment? Increase sales? Generate awareness of certain products and services? And then how do you want customers to feel? What actions do you want them to take? Your answers to those questions will help you focus your content.
