🍷 New virtual experience vendors
Our brand-new allbound engagement methodology helps you build better connections by creating outstanding experiences across the full customer lifecycle.
Reachdesk enables you to harness channels including gifting, direct mail, event packs and swag to stand out from the crowd and engage your audience
However, an extremely impactful part of your allbound engagement toolkit that can sometimes be overlooked is virtual experiences.
These interactive, immersive, unforgettable events help:
- Drive prospect engagement, building better connections with top prospects and increasing deal velocity.
- Reduce churn and drive advocacy by showing appreciation for your client contacts, thanking customer advisory boards and showing love to your client community
- Reinforce your company culture through incredible team-building experiences
And we’re very pleased to announce we’ve expanded our virtual experience marketplace with two fabulous new vendors: Purple Cork and Elevent!
Purple Cork offers exclusive guided tasting experiences covering wine, spirits, cocktails and more. Top experiences include Champagne sabering, a Kentucky Bourbon trail and a unique tasting led by NFL star turned winemaker, Drew Bledsoe - plus several alcohol-free options.
Elevent hosts a diverse range of games, team-building activities, tastings and activities. Top experiences include a family feud quiz, group painting sessions, and a pizza making masterclass.
These new high-quality experiences are already live and ready to browse in our virtual experience marketplace where you can filter by type, location, price, duration and number of attendees.
