They change everyone's title to cut out

That sounds pretty weird, title-wise. What would experimental marketing mean at a car company?

Check out the new Chevy Cobalt at a big sex party!

Free punch in your friend's face with every car purchase!

Experiential. Not experimental. Like, we're experience-based ... because you get to touch the car, sit in it, etc.

I'm an Experiential Tecmo Super Bowl Manager.

Awesome.
