  Those who have worked in marketing for many years may remember the days of The 12 Month Marketing Plan. The marketing team of experts worked intensely to develop a plan that showed proven potential to produce results and, no matter what happened during those 12 months, the plan was: “Stick to the plan!” With the advancement of technology and the demand to see immediate, bottom-line results for marketing efforts, those days have passed. Website analytics have made the ability to access real-time response rates to the brand messages. Smart marketers are using this data to quickly adjust their efforts toward the most effective marketing mediums in order to dramatically boost response rates, target specific demographics and shift from short-term customer sales to long-term customer relationships.

  
  

   In this Brand Seminar, The Flores Shop’s Chief Creative Fella, Kevin Flores, will help you understand how to utilize your valuable marketing experience with today’s technology to produce immediate and long-term, measurable results for your company.

   Topics covered during this luncheon are:

  • “Who Are You? …Really?”: Defining Your Authentic Brand Story
  • Expand Your Marketing Arsenal
  • Social Media: Horizontal Marketing
  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
  • Search Engine Marketing
  • Google Analytics
  • Relevant Content
  • Ways To Measure Everything

  Fostering a Creative Workplace
  Tony Vengrove of Miles Finch Innovation
  
  Tuesday, June 4
  7:15 - 9:00 a.m.
  

  
  

  The best way to invite creativity and innovative thinking into your organization is to build creative leadership skills. In this talk, Tony will define what creative leadership is and isn't and why nurturing organizational creativity will increasingly become a key leadership competency moving forward. Learn basic principles on how to awaken the creativity of your organization, how to listen and receive ideas, and how to manage the inevitable tension between creativity and logic. Pulling from his NYC ad agency and F500 innovation experience, Tony will share first-hand experiences of how effective creative leadership led to big ideas that grew iconic brands like Toyota and Pepperidge Farm.
