Reach Your Market this Summer

In today’s cluttered ad environment, there are few ways that you can truly make an impact with consumers. Our goal for all partners is to create an experience and value proposition that is unique, cost-effective and long lasting. In the summer months, Chicagoans are active and involved in  outside activities. You can not reach them effectively through, TV, print or radio. We provide face-to-face interaction with them at each festival produced and managed by StarEvents.

StarEvents’ Summer Festival Series offers an ideal field marketing option for your company. Our events provide a unique opportunity to economically showcase your products and services directly to a large, socially and culturally diverse audience. Over 250,000 potential customers are estimated to attend our festivals this summer, with millions more exposed to our marketing and promotional campaigns.

In addition to the substantial benefits of partnering with our marketing efforts, this experience offers your representatives a first hand chance to increase market share in and around the Chicagoland area by communicating your product benefits and company messages directly to consumers through on-site participation.

Event signage, live product displays/demos and promotional giveaways are just a few marketing opportunities that can be used to promote your brand and build your databases. Plus, each of our events builds communities for a better tomorrow and benefits non-profit organizations. Therefore, a partnership demonstrates a commitment to improving the quality of life in these areas where your customers live and work. Our events will assist to augment your on-going cause-marketing efforts.

Include your company in an experience that will brand your image in Chicago.
