EAST END has expanded its portfolio and established the new unit “Brand & Media Partnerships.” The goal is to multiply the classic experience through planable reach via the EAST END Partner Network of brands, platforms, and media.
The first project of the new competence area, led by Sascha Gerstand, is the AUTO BILD e-Motion Days by Volkswagen, which is based on a newly developed Extended Experience Toolbox from EAST END that connects media partnerships, POS activation, and live experiences on high-reach platforms.
Pilot Project AUTO BILD e-Motion Days by Volkswagen
B&M Marketing and EAST END have developed an unforgettable brand experience for the Volkswagen ID vehicle range with the “AUTO BILD e-Motion Days.” The aim was to make e mobility tangible for a broad audience while simultaneously generating leads. The combination of EAST END’s Brand & Media Partner Network, the media reach of AUTO BILD, and the maximum foot traffic in the POS environment of ECE shopping centers enabled national activation of automotive-affine target groups, along with the direct placement of vehicles at central everyday touchpoints in the shopping centers. The experience included cross-media measures and direct test drives at the ECE centers, setting new standards in the presentation of e-mobility.

EAST END has access to the most well known media brands and 271 shopping centers in Europe through its partner network.
