As a result, their book The Experience Economy is now a classic, embraced by readers and companies worldwide and read in more than a dozen languages. And though the world has changed in many ways since then, the way to a customer's heart has not.

With an ongoing torrent of brands attacking consumers from all sides, how do you make yours stand out? Welcome to the new Experience Economy. With this fully updated edition of the book, Pine and Gilmore make an even stronger case that experience is the missing link between a company and its potential audience. It offers new rich examples—including the U.S. Army, Heineken Experience, Autostadt, Vinopolis, American Girl Place, and others—to show fresh approaches to scripting and staging compelling experiences, while staying true to the very real economic conditions of the day.

Book Golf and the Experience Economy

Download or read book Golf and the Experience Economy written by Brian Soule and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golf, like many sport and recreation activities, has evolved and expanded since its inception. Golf was introduced to the United States in the late-1800s and has historically had a reputation of being exclusive; a game for the upper and upper-middle class. After experiencing a dramatic increase in popularity through the early 2000s, golf suffered a decline and had only recently leveled off before seeing another surge in participation during the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the key contributors to the success of the game in recent years has been the introduction of golf alternative facilities like Topgolf and Drive Shack that are built in a way that enhances the social experience. These facilities are experiencing great success and are welcoming a more diverse customer base than has ever been seen before in golf. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors relating to individuals' participation at golf alternative facilities to better understand the role that the experiences provided by these facilities play in the game of golf and the decisions of golfers. The study aimed to investigate the relationships among individuals' experience with the game (i.e. "golfographics"), motivations, and future participation intentions both at golf alternative activities and at traditional golf courses. The study employed a mixed method approach and was conducted in two phases comprised of an online questionnaire (n = 135) and interviews (n = 7). Purposive and convenience sampling were used to capture a sample of mostly "dedicated golfers" who reported high levels of skill and engagement with golf. Using the Task and Ego in Sport Questionnaire (TEOSQ) and Social Motivational Orientations Scale for Sport (SMOSS), motivation surrounding visits to Topgolf and Drive Shack were measured. Cluster analysis and analyses of variance were conducted to investigate differences in golfographic and demographic data between clusters. Private-access golfers and public-access golfers were then compared. A number of significant differences between these two groups were discovered, leading to important findings for the golf industry. The study found utility in the concurrent use of achievement and social motivation frameworks to study participants in a sport setting that has a strong social component. Findings supported existing Experience Economy research suggesting that an experience and the built environment can significantly influence motivation and future intentions. The study found high social motivation in the sample, indicating that dedicated golfers frame Topgolf and Drive Shack as a social experience with a golf component, which has implications for the golf industry. The study also revealed that social factors play a role in recreation substitution choices, where many in the sample indicated a willingness to substitute Topgolf/Drive Shack for some traditional rounds of golf. Strategic recommendations for golf industry leaders, associations, and facilities are also discussed, with a focus on increasing diversity and inclusion in golf. Future research should investigate the interrelatedness of achievement and social motivations, especially in socially-focused sport settings, and should measure the impact of these motivations on future intentions. This study should be expanded with a sample that is more representative of the diverse Topgolf and Drive Shack customer populations. Suggestions for industry should be employed and studied further, specifically the recommendation to build similar experiences at traditional golf courses.

Book Creating Experiences in the Experience Economy

Download or read book Creating Experiences in the Experience Economy written by Jon Sundbo and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating Experiences in the Experience Economy focuses on the creation of experience from a business perspective. In doing so, the book establishes a more solid foundation for making better and more complex analyses of experience creation, paving the way for the development of analytically based and innovative experiences in experience firms and institutions. The contributors emphasise that experience creation is not an easy task with a straightforward formula and examine how marketed experiences are constructed, developed and innovated. Presenting diverse and innovative perspectives, the contributors discuss and present models for how experiences are designed, produced and distributed. With its cross-disciplinary approach to experience creation, this fascinating study will appeal to researchers and academics of business administration, services, culture and tourism.

Book Planning and Managing the Experience Economy in Tourism

Download or read book Planning and Managing the Experience Economy in Tourism written by Augusto Costa, Rui and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-12-03 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism is facing a new paradigm that has been brought on by the introduction of experiences in the development, management, and promotion of tourism. Associating experiences to tourism destination and products allows tourists to relate to their vacations differently and helps to fuel a destination’s competitiveness and compliance with new needs and motivations that are being driven by the tourists. When properly design, managed, and developed, tourism experiences can contribute to the destination’s overall sustainability by maximining tourism’s positive impacts and fostering their spillover to local communities. Planning and Managing the Experience Economy in Tourism is an essential reference book that seeks to advance research on tourism experience as well as investigate how tourism experiences can create and increase tourism competitiveness. The book explores how the experience concept has evolved in the last decade, alongside the needs and motivations of consumers, and how it can be conceptualized, designed, managed, and implemented both at the tourism firm and destination levels. Delving further into concepts like creative tourism, destination attributes, and smart experiences, this book serves as a dynamic resource for travel agencies, tourism managers, tourism professionals, marketers, destination managers, government officials, policymakers, academicians, students, tourism officials, planners, and researchers.

Book Enterprising Initiatives in the Experience Economy

Download or read book Enterprising Initiatives in the Experience Economy written by Britta Timm Knudsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, the close relationship between culture and economy - or "the experience economy" – has risen on the agenda. Although there is an established research field for analysing the economic impact of entrepreneurship, there is currently a limited amount of research that analyses the cultural impact and opportunity of entrepreneurship. Linking experience economy with enterprising behavior moves the term away from businesses' competitiveness and consumer behavior towards a more value-focused business in general. This ground-breaking book integrates entrepreneurship and empowerment into one central theme, drawing on research from both the social sciences (innovation, entrepreneurship, empowerment and activism) and the humanities (participatory culture, user-generated designs, creative networks). Enterprising Initiatives expands the definition of entrepreneurship beyond a primarily economic profit-seeking phenomenon to a broader understanding of enterprising behaviour based on an individual-opportunity nexus. Beyond social entrepreneurship, it explores a broad range of individual, collective and cooperative citizen initiatives under the umbrella of enterprising action. This innovative approach will be of great interest to scholars in entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurship, cultural entrepreneurship, cultural studies, and consumer culture, as well as for policy makers in public and local government, regional development and cultural event management.

Book Imagineering  Innovation in the Experience Economy

Download or read book Imagineering Innovation in the Experience Economy written by Gabrielle Kuiper and published by CABI. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To survive in today’s complex economies, it is imperative for companies to understand their consumers in terms of how and why they like to use their products. Distinction based on quality no longer provides competitive advantage. Imagineers use design methods to create meaningful experiences that connect consumers to brands, employees to companies and consumers to consumers. This book explains the background of the need for experiences and then focusses on how to design them. Bringing theory into practice for students of tourism marketing, event planning and business, it provides a window into the creative world of Imagineering.

Book Final Rounds

Download or read book Final Rounds written by James Dodson and published by Bantam. This book was released on 1997-10-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Dodson always felt closest to his father while they were on the links. So it seemed only appropriate when his father learned he had two months to live that they would set off on the golf journey of their dreams to play the most famous courses in the world. Final Rounds takes us to the historic courses of Royal Lytham and Royal Birkdale, to the windswept undulations of Carnoustie, where Hogan played peerlessly in '53, and the legendary St. Andrews, whose hallowed course reveals something of the eternal secret of the game's mysterious allure over pros and hackers alike. Throughout their poignant journey, the Dodsons humorously reminisce and reaffirm their love for each other, as the younger Dodson finds out what it means to have his father also be his best friend. Final Rounds is a book never to be forgotten, a book about fathers and sons, long-held secrets, and the lessons a middle-aged man can still learn from his dad about life, love, and family. Final Rounds is a tribute to a very special game and the fathers and sons who make it so.

Book Emerging Sports as Social Movements

Download or read book Emerging Sports as Social Movements written by Joshua Woods and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-28 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the rise of an emerging sport as a grassroots effort (or “new social movement”), arguing that the growth of non-normative sports movements occurs through two social processes: one driven primarily by product development, commercialization, and consumption, and another that relies upon public resources and grassroots efforts. Through the lens of disc golf, informed by the author’s experience both playing and researching the sport, Joshua Woods here explores how non-normative sports development depends on the consistency of insider culture and ideology, as well as on how the movement navigates a broad field of market competition, government regulation, community characteristics, public opinion, traditional media, social media and technological change. Throughout, the author probes why some sports grow faster than others, examining cultural tendencies toward sport, individual choices to participate, and the various institutional forces at play.
