It is more relevant now because the consumer journey has been altered and fragmented by COVID.

Discussion topics: What is consumer journey intelligence and how it can inform and influence the business results achieved through omnichannel advertising programs? How to setup and activate a typical omnichannel journey using relevant historical and category-specific benchmarks? What is the ideal balance of roles between the human expert and the AI to achieve incremental gains? How to bridge journey intelligence between the online and the offline segments of the journey?

June 16 at 2:30 PM ET The digital advertising industry has come full circle in recognizing the role of context in reaching the right audience along the consumer journey. Advertisers have always valued content adjacency to establish relevance although the hunt for scale shifted their attention to behavior targeting enabled by 3rd-party cookies. The industry appears ready to pivot back to context given the need for consumer privacy and major advancements in AI-based contextual intelligence that can deliver greater advertising effectiveness than behavior-based audience models. Learn from the pioneers of contextual intelligence and journey automation like Ken Weiner, Chief Technology Officer of GumGum and Andrey Feldman, VP of Products at AcuityAds, in a discussion moderated by Seraj Bharwani, Chief Strategy Officer at AcuityAds. Key questions addressed in this session: What is AI-Driven contextual intelligence? Can contextual intelligence deliver better audience precision and scale than behavior targeting?

WATCH THE RECAP CULTIVATING A DIGITAL-FIRST MINDSET – CHPA 2020 MARKETING WEBINAR SERIES JULY 29, 2020 @ 2PM CHPA (Consumer Healthcare Products Association) 2020 Marketing Conference will be a webinar series focusing on a variety of marketing topics. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to connect and grow with marketing professionals in the consumer healthcare industry. Session Description: Becoming digital FIRST brings strategic benefits and unique efficiencies to consumer healthcare brands. A digital first brand treats digital interactions and eCommerce enablement as strategic imperatives, as opposed to just ‘add-ons’ to an existing brick and mortar strategy. As the trend to digital first continues to accelerate in HBA and OTC categories, a firm understanding of digital marketing and eCommerce will be fundamental to success. This session will feature a speaker from a leading digital media platform, who will set the stage with the “state of digital media & eCommerce”. He will then moderate a panel of 2 digital-first marketers from the industry, who have become proficient in this field. Panelists: Kip Olmstead – President of Genomind Sharaf Atakhanov, Director, Digital & eCommerce Marketing, Boiron North America Seraj Bharwani, Chief of Strategy for AcuityAds, moderator and speaker ECOMMERCE PROS TALK DTC JUNE 24, 2020 @ 3PM Ecommerce is on a new growth trajectory jumping from 16% to 27% of total US retail sales in just the past 8 weeks. Consumer behaviors across all age cohorts are shifting online towards both Click-to-Home and Click-&-Collect as convenient and contactless alternatives to in-store shopping. There exists enormous potential for companies both large and small to protect and gain market share. Mega marketplaces like Amazon and Walmart are now used alongside a captive, DTC presence facilitated by platforms like Shopify. Omnichannel marketing and sales is more accessible than ever. Join us for a spirited panel discussion of both opportunities and challenges associated with launching and growing a DTC eCommerce business. Featuring Beverly Stotz, former CMO of Illy Coffee with over 20 years of experience building a successful DTC coffee business, and Allan Peretz, President of Bold Strategies with over 25 years of experience launching DTC brands for P&G and other global consumer brands.

With the exception of online grocery/eCommerce and delivery services, every category requires a strategic revision. Building client conviction in the middle of a major national crisis will require a fundamental reassessment of the emerging consumer behaviors and purchase drivers influenced by safety, social and economic concerns of most households in the country.

WATCH THE RECAP TRADITIONAL SPORTS PROGRAMMING IS ON HIATUS. WHAT’S THE ALTERNATIVE FOR ADVERTISERS? APRIL 22, 2020 @ 2PM While traditional sports are on hold, the esports industry has pivoted quickly to online competition and is thriving in this environment of physical distancing. Esports is a multi-billion dollar, global sports franchise industry with intercontinental leagues featuring star-studded teams that attract millions of fans and followers, and hundreds of millions of viewers. With over 600 million viewers globally this year, esports has a larger following than American football. So what can esports offer an advertiser seeking engaged audience, reach, and performance?

WATCH THE RECAP DO WE NEED ADVERTISING DURING THE PANDEMIC? MARCH 24, 2020 There is widespread panic among advertisers to stop media and advertising spend as consumers self-isolate. The logic is simple – if nobody is traveling or out shopping, why advertise? While consumer behavior in North America over the past couple weeks has clearly shifted in ways not seen since World War II, we cannot fully appreciate the true ramifications of this shift without observing what transpired over the past few months in countries experiencing the first wave of the virus sweeping over vast populations, especially in Asia. The goal of this webinar is to share early learnings from consumer behavior during a pandemic as a way to help North American advertisers develop a pragmatic approach to advertising for profitable growth in the foreseeable future.

IMEDIA AGENCY SUMMIT: THE DYNAMIC AGENCY MODEL MAY 3-6, 2015, RANCHO PALOS VERDES, CALIFORNIA In the constantly changing marketing ecosystem, agencies continue to refine and redefine their value proposition in order to remain relevant.

Will certain agencies move downstream to provide services to the midmarket and below, essentially running marketing technology stacks on behalf of advertisers in an outsourced capacity? In short, what does the future hold for agencies?
