Published on

There is little that is more rewarding for entrepreneurs and executives than creating an entirely new category, fueled by disruptive innovation. Consider the new giants of our time, like salesforce.com, Tesla and Uber, and the incredible value created by their leaders.

We have invited back serial entrepreneur Mark Organ to deliver a sequel to his top-rated presentation last year on category creation. In this session you will learn not just how to define and build your category, but how to dominate it. How do you market differently when building a category versus entering an existing one? How to craft messaging to appeal to the missionaries you need to build your category and company? How to leverage your customer advocates and key influencers to grow efficiently? Mark will answer these questions and much more.
