CCEP Marketing and Promotion 5 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: Which post-event marketing activity is most valuable for building long-term audience relationships?
- Sending a personalized thank-you email with highlights and a save-the-date for next year (Correct answer)
- Deleting all social media posts after the event ends
- Immediately announcing a price increase for next year
- Archiving all attendee data without follow-up
Correct answer: Sending a personalized thank-you email with highlights and a save-the-date for next year
Post-event communication maintains momentum, reinforces the value delivered, and plants the seed for future attendance.
Question 2: A conference marketer wants to use 'scarcity' as a promotional lever. Which message best achieves this?
- Only 50 VIP passes remaining — reserve yours before they sell out (Correct answer)
- All ticket tiers are available until the day of the event
- We have unlimited seating for all attendees
- Register anytime — pricing stays the same year-round
Correct answer: Only 50 VIP passes remaining — reserve yours before they sell out
Communicating limited availability triggers loss aversion and motivates potential attendees to act before the opportunity disappears.
Question 3: What is the primary purpose of creating a post-event recap video?
- To repurpose event content for ongoing marketing and attract future attendees (Correct answer)
- To document vendor performance for internal review only
- To satisfy venue contract requirements
- To replace the need for a post-event survey

Recap videos showcase the event experience and serve as social proof to convert prospects who missed the current event into future registrants.
Question 4: Which approach best supports accessibility in event marketing materials?
- Including alt text for images and ensuring sufficient color contrast in digital ads (Correct answer)
- Using only PDF formats for all promotional documents

Large conferences require long lead times to build awareness, secure sponsors, and allow attendees to plan travel and budget approval.

- Using testimonials, past attendance numbers, and endorsements to build credibility and trust (Correct answer)
- Providing free access to social media platforms at the event
- Monitoring competitor social media accounts
- Limiting access to the event to vetted professionals only
Correct answer: Using testimonials, past attendance numbers, and endorsements to build credibility and trust
Social proof leverages others' positive experiences to reassure potential attendees that the event is worth attending.

- Registration conversion rate from marketing touchpoints (Correct answer)
- Total number of exhibitor booths sold
- Average session length during the event
