Offering Luxury Lifestyle Experiences to Affluent Customers - The MobiCom Way

A luxurious lifestyle is for those who possess and appreciate fine taste for everything that touches their life - the world’s top 1% affluent people. They have seen it all but are yet on a continuous endeavor to experience more and beyond.  It is a situation of you just cannot get enough of the good life. Defining luxury and living a luxurious life goes beyond owning exquisite possessions but is about experiencing the unique.  It is also about having the opportunity to be at the fore of experiencing and witnessing the best of all spheres and industries of life.

Invitation to witness legendary craftsmen bring life to their works, one-on-one interaction with favorite stars, and weaving celebrations that leave behind memories to last a lifestyle are much sought after. After all, there is only one life to live and celebrate.

While there is nothing wrong with owning expensive properties and gathering splurge-worthy items, having captivating lifestyle experiences etched on your memory forever is one of the best ways to live. 

Research has shown that the current generation is steadily championing spending away from possessions and towards experiences instead.  This last decade saw a significant shift away from possession spending to experiences instead. 

The UK experienced a situation whereby spending on possession fell by a whopping 31% compared to the minuscule 2% decrease in experience spending. And everyone is in on the new trend – both the older and younger generations.

MobiCom is that lifestyle connoisseur that can bring life-changing luxurious experiences to your doorstep.  Pairing you with the ideal luxury brands to match your equally affluent lifestyle, you are guaranteed cheaper and faster ways to enjoy satisfactory one-in-a-million kind of value-led experiences in place of costlier accumulation of high-ended items.

Last year, MobiCom predicted luxury to be distilled to its very essence and ethos of craftsmanship, timelessness, and longevity. The stories luxury brands tell will thus be more grounded in authenticity and inspire a more conscious living. This emphasis on value-led experiences will create new opportunities to engage with affluent consumers by making meaningful contributions to their lifestyles while driving positive change in the world.

This is a far cry from what it used to be in the luxe industry and for the consumers at the fore – which is a notable improvement in the industry. Consumers of everything deluxe will be privy to limited editions of the finest things even as luxury brands committed to catering to affluent clientele upgrade their services – an action already set in motion by MobiCom.

How does it offer such a limited edition of unparalleled luxurious services to members on its network? 

1.       Curating experiences suited for the affluent and members of private clubs

No matter the digital channel, luxury brands will need to offer first-class online experiences that are exclusive and bespoke.

MobiCom understands this very well and curates one-of-a-kind experiences catering to the lifestyle of the affluent, represented by members of private clubs worldwide.

2.       Curating high net worth private club events 

Members of private clubs represent 1% of the world’s most affluent consumers with a taste for finer things in life and a luxurious lifestyle. This 1% is a makeup a beehive of entrepreneurs, successful professionals, socialites, influencers, entertainers, and opinion-makers of modern society.

Club life and social connections are highly valued sources for information and recommendations, which are necessary for growth in varying industries of the world.  Little wonders why most members of the upscale community belong to one private club or another.

Members of MobiCom’s network are privy to the finest calendar of diverse experiences, which appeals to a wide audience of the elites in society. There is literally something for everyone, irrespective of your niche and taste.

MobiCom offers richness in the storytelling of having memorable experiences rather than buying a couple of expensive items. This is in tandem with the growing need of silk-stocking consumers to live out their story and tell who they are in varying ways rather than showcase what they have. The latter is always a consequence of the former and may need not be emphasized.

4.       Driving brands engagement in the luxury market

Where luxury brands meet with the right audience of luxe faithfuls, concierge-led experiences are bound to occur.  MobiCom allows brands to participate in exclusive cutting edge social events that cut across all sectors of the economy to cater to the tastes of its customers worldwide.

What does it take to curate luxury lifestyle experiences for the affluent?

We will always have the bluebloods and those who live in the lap of luxury with us in our society. Fortunately, the affluent world is accommodating enough for many who may want to upgrade their lifestyles and live flush with wealth.

But being rich and famous does not come cheap.  The affluent lifestyle involves diverse unlimited opportunities open for exploration by the right set of people that can afford it. Nonetheless, it has many advantages, including living posh and comfortable, getting invited to high profile social events, and breaking glass ceilings and barriers of social-economic positions.  Living a rich lifestyle also lets you experience the paparazzi and concierge-driven travel, be it for vacations and other curated high network events.

Sadly, 2020 ushered in a downturn of the luxury market with the pandemic and the frenzy it threw the world into. As a result, there were steep declines in the sale of luxury goods and lifestyle events, affecting luxury brands and businesses.

Brick and mortar luxury brands without a digital presence lost their affluent customers with plummeting stocks and sales. Also, luxury personal goods and luxury experiences labels worldwide experienced a dip in profits, as the tourist market fell with travel restrictions and bans by the governments.

With the depreciating tourism market, came the need to look inwards and affluent networks of people who regularly made luxury goods purchases when they travel were forced to turn to the local market and consignors.

For luxury players to recover back their clientele even as the world adjust to the aftermath of the pandemic, they need to readjust their operations and satisfy the demands of an increasingly growing community of target consumers – significantly the younger generation predicted to boost the luxury market demand flow by 180% from 2019-2025.

Why is it essential for luxury service providers to up their game and win back the market?

Consumers are seeking newer ways to experience their favorite brands, waiting to be courted like never before. Fortunately, this means brands must think out of the box and experiment.

They must also ensure that their efforts at media engagement, their brand’s message, and service operations and methods are all aligned to achieve the following:

o   Reach and move their target audience

o   Provide for social amplification of the message with a close circle of friends and family for maximum impact

o   Curate experiential engagement and not commentary alone

o   Allow the consumer to experience the richness of storytelling of the brand’s history and philosophy

o   Create more and more influencers or brand ambassadors

Well, good news to the luxury players and the elites in society as well. MobiCom complements the affluent private club members on its network with their luxury lifestyle experiences, and this is how:

1.       Offering luxury brands the opportunity to interact in person with their target audience

Undoubtedly, luxury targets luxury in return. In the same vein, luxury brands target grandeur and lush consumers who can afford the opulent way of living. MobiCom is the link between these brands and a highly qualified audience of affluent consumers who are private club members, worldwide.

It is a win-win situation for the labels involved and the customers on its network. The latter enjoy their elite lifestyle experiences again, making luxury purchases from the brands on the same pedestal. These brands, in turn, can recover profits and customers lost due to the financial plummet the luxury market experienced.

Partnerships are easy ways to drive more business transactions, have access to a greater measure of resources, and reach a wider audience. For example, MobiCom offers affluent customers on its network luxury lifestyle experiences by partnering with luxury brands that cater to the very best.
