This chapter examines immersive marketing and the metaverse as interconnected developments reshaping how brands engage with consumers. Immersive marketing is conceptualized as a shift from message-based communication toward interactive environments in which consumers actively participate in brand experiences. Building on this perspective, the chapter analyzes the metaverse as a persistent digital space that extends these dynamics into shared and socially embedded virtual environments. Together, both concepts are approached as part of a broader transformation in which engagement becomes experiential, the customer journey becomes continuous, and brand–consumer relationships are increasingly co-created. The chapter concludes by outlining the main opportunities and challenges associated with this shift, particularly in relation to access, governance, and the evolving nature of digital interaction.

摘要

This chapter examines immersive marketing and the metaverse as interconnected developments reshaping how brands engage with consumers. Immersive marketing is conceptualized as a shift from message-based communication toward interactive environments in which consumers actively participate in brand experiences. Building on this perspective, the chapter analyzes the metaverse as a persistent digital space that extends these dynamics into shared and socially embedded virtual environments. Together, both concepts are approached as part of a broader transformation in which engagement becomes experiential, the customer journey becomes continuous, and brand–consumer relationships are increasingly co-created. The chapter concludes by outlining the main opportunities and challenges associated with this shift, particularly in relation to access, governance, and the evolving nature of digital interaction.
