A recent report showed people value experiences over things. Across the generations, people value sharing experiences with friends and family. By creating, sharing and capturing memories they form closer connections and bonds and can deepen relationships.
Aim to make experiences more memorable and enjoyable.
Experiences are not just a form of passive entertainment.
True, they can be a passive experience such as watching a film or a play.
But they could be more interactive, such as with audience participation in a show.
In fact by combining the four elements that make up an experience, the experience can become more memorable and enjoyable. It has been shown that activity is even better when it is shared with a group as activities can spark creativity, imagination, and innovation.
So what are the four elements?
The Harvard Business Review lists the four elements that make up an experience as:
- Entertainment
- Educational
- Esthetic
- Escapist
Combining entertainment and education with esthetic qualities and escapism leads to the richest experiences.
