The article identifies key marketing tools that ensure effective interaction with consumers in the field of creative industries. Theoretical foundations for the use of aesthetics, sensory elements, and identity as strategic factors in building brands oriented towards emotional engagement, deep visual experience, and cultural relevance are outlined. Particular attention is paid to the multisensory approach, which encompasses visual, auditory, tactile, and aromatic stimuli as tools for shaping a holistic consumer experience. The importance of visual identity as the basis for constructing a recognizable and emotionally relevant brand is highlighted. Logos, color schemes, typography, composition, and visual hierarchy are considered as elements of visual codes that can activate subconscious associations, evoke emotional responses, and ensure long-term audience loyalty. The article analyzes how aesthetics and sensory practices contribute to shaping a positive brand image, enhancing trust, and creating a unique consumer experience. It is emphasized that under conditions of increasing competition and information overload, emotionally charged communication becomes decisive in consumer choice. The author also examines the ability of a brand to convey the values and identity of the target audience as an essential component of marketing effectiveness in creative industries. The study proves that the strategic integration of aesthetic and sensory solutions with a clearly expressed identity narrative creates a unique emotional atmosphere that strengthens the competitive positions of a creative product in the market. Additionally, it is stressed that multisensory and aesthetically oriented approaches form the foundation not only for commercial success but also for sustainable cultural impact, transforming the brand into a tool of self-expression and social interaction in the global digital environment.
Keywords: creative industries, marketing, sensory, aesthetics, visual identity.
