The analysis of consumer preferences of goods/ brands/ firms plays a crucial role in marketing research. On its basis, an effective strategy is created and solutions are developed for the promotion of goods / services / trademarks / firms.
At the same time, traditional methods of measuring preferences yield data, the informativeness of which is low – on their basis, a very limited range of results can be obtained. However, if the measurement data is transformed by suitable methods, then their informativeness will significantly increase. For the transformation, both generally applicable methods of optimal scaling and methods of multidimensional scaling can be used, specially designed for the analysis of preferences (they allow you to build scales of consumer preferences, identify possible multidimensionality of consumer choice, analyze the «first choice», as well as the choice of the second and subsequent queues).
As a result, it becomes possible to identify the deep structure of consumer preferences, to find areas of choice (the range of characteristics taken into account by representatives of the target group when choosing goods / brands / firms) and ideal areas (the values of characteristics preferred by consumers), which significantly increases the validity of promotion decisions and gives effective ideas for promotion.

The following article reviews unconventional marketing communications on the emotional marketing concept. Unconventional visual and audial marketing communications provide information directly to the consumer through information noise in a highly competitive brand environment. The authors propose an approach to the implementation of visual and audio unconventional communications, which involves the formation of an emotional connection between the target audience and brand and includes three areas of brand interaction with the target audience: communication through the main channels, direct interaction of the target audience with the brand product, purposeful acquaintance with the brand through social networks. Consumer ways are differentiated according to the leading type of perception of information: auditory or visual. The authors have developed and tested on a number of applied projects the model of “approaching consumers to the brand”, which focuses on unconventional emotionally charged communications. The proposed approach is intended for use by marketers in the process of forming and implementing a communications strategy.

The negative consequences of the covid crisis, the emergence of new difficult-to-predict environmental factors have caused a difficult situation in the fitness services market: a reduction in income, restrictions on activities at the legislative level, a forced increase in costs. All this determines the need to develop a new approach to the organization of interaction between the target audience and fitness brands, aimed at minimizing the impact of negative factors. The authors conducted a study of the fitness services market, identified its key features and trends. Based on desk and field studies, the main segments of the target audience of the market are identified and described. In accordance with the results obtained, the authors propose a method for managing the experience of consumers in the fitness services market based on the concept of cognitive marketing. It is an effective tool for forming a system of interaction between the brand and the target audience in conditions of instability. The application of the method provides an integrated approach to the management of consumer experience in the fitness services market: from the analytical stage to the development of strategic, tactical decisions and evaluation of their effectiveness. The proposed method has been tested on a large network of fitness clubs in St. Petersburg. The results of the research conducted by the authors are valuable for practical marketing.

The article discusses the concept of engagement marketing. Special attention is paid to the key tool of this concept – gamification as a way of brand management. Through the use of gamification, it is possible to increase the loyalty of the audience, retain the consumer, form a community and increase the frequency of consumer contacts with the brand. At the same time, it is important to lay this element of engagement marketing at the conceptual and strategic levels of the brand. However, many modern brands are limited exclusively to the tactical (instrumental) level. The authors consider the existing gamification models: «PBL Model», K. Verbach and D. Hunter gamification model, Octalysis scheme (Yu Kai Chou). Based on the analysis, an adapted model of Octalysis is presented. This model is necessary to study the significance level of consumer participation motives in gamification within the framework of brand concept development. Also, this model will help in the study of the level of consumer interest (involvement) in each of the motives implemented by the brand. The authors propose a «Brand player» model, which allows using the previously identified motives for consumer participation in gamification at the conceptual, strategic and tactical level of the brand. The article presents the results of testing the developed models on the example of the educational brand GameClub by Marketorium.

Increasing the level of socio-economic development of the country and its regions is accompanied by processes and trends that increase the importance of individual industries in their socio-economic development. Such industries can become major factors of competitiveness. Currently, branding, along with other tools for strategic development, is considered the most important resource necessary for the development of territories and increasing their competitiveness. The formation of the Novosibirsk city brand, based on an integrated approach, will allow using the brand as a strategic tool for the socio-economic development of the city and increasing its competitiveness. In our opinion, in modern conditions, tourism can become one of the industries that contribute to the socio-economic development of the region.
