Marketing to the Millennials doesn't have to be mysterious. Law firms can no longer afford to overlook or avoid marketing to this often-misunderstood generation. There's real ROI tied to knowing this audience – and now you can discover how to understand and reach them. Millennials surpassed Baby Boomers as America's largest generation in 2016. The easiest way for a law firm to fail is to NOT understand Millennials, NOT find ways to be relevant or engage to them, and NOT to adapt to their new expectations. They are the largest spending cohort in the US, and they are retaining attorneys. "Law firms and marketers need to shift and adapt to this reality, instead of waiting for one that won't come true,” says Katie Elfering, a CEB Iconoculture consumer strategist and Forbes' resident expert on Millennials. What you will discover - How Millennials search for attorneys. - How to appeal to this generation, now in their mid-30s and buying cars, homes and insurance. - What Millennials care about. - Creating brand messaging to appeal to Digital Natives. - How today's generation makes purchase decisions. Our Millennial Presenters from Network Affiliates: - Emily Frickey, Director of Digital Operations - Alex Dodge, Account Director - Kate Stromberg, Marketing Director

Practical Ways Men Can Address Tech's Gender Imbalance | Startup Week Chattan...

Very

Countless studies show companies with gender-diverse teams outperform those where women are underrepresented. If you aren’t investing in increasing diversity, you’re likely to lose out to competitors who are. And yet, women only hold 25% of computing jobs and 11% of executive roles in Silicon Valley. This is a big, contentious problem, and we need the best minds—both men and women—to collaborate and work toward a solution. Since men hold the majority of leadership positions at all types of companies, men have an opportunity to make a real difference. In this Startup Week Chattanooga event, Very's director of marketing Emily Maxie shares the stories of the men who have supported, challenged, and encouraged her so far in my career, and she gives no-nonsense tips for advocating for more gender equality in the workplace.

This is an article and deck about the outlook for public relations and social media in 2018. It’s based on insight from my day job working at Ketchum. 12 months is an arbitrary period to measure change in a sector that is rapidly innovating in some areas such as artificial intelligence and digital media; but woefully slow in others such as diversity and ethics. If there’s anything that I can do in my role at Ketchum to help your organisation address any of the issues highlighted, please let me know.

MyGuest_CaryaGroup

Creative director LBI Digital As Chief Creative Officer at DigitasLBi International, Chris Clarke is responsible for the creative output of the network and its creative staff. Chris loves to stay close to the work, developing creative ideas with teams across the network for clients including Coca Cola, Sony Xperia and Etihad. Believability is his creative religion: he is permanently on a mission to bridge the gap between promise and proof for DigitasLBi’s clients, helping them to be true to the principles they espouse. Like most people who’ve been doing this for a while, Chris stumbled into the digital industry in the late 90s. As a copywriter, he made it his mission to bring the craft of ideas to digital marketing, an ambition realised at pioneering Swedish digital advertising agency Abel & Baker and later at Wheel where he became Executive Creative Director. He was subsequently European Executive Creative Director at Modem Media, President and Executive Creative Director of Digitas UK and Chief Creative Officer of LBi. Over the years, Chris has become a regular on the speaking circuit and has picked up awards at Cannes, D&AD, LIA, Campaign Digital, Campaign Direct, Revolution, BIMA and the Webbys. Talk: For years the internet has been touted as an almost universal force for good. We hear of the “democratising” nature of a platform dedicated to openness and transparency. We have come to see the web as a place where ‘The Consumer is in Control”, and where information wants to be free. In this session, Chris will explore the darker side of the digital revolution, looking at the “winner takes all” business models, and downward pressure on quality caused by ad funded content. By understanding the dark side of the digital revolution, you will be better prepared to help your organisation stay relevant and fit for the digital future.

This paradigm shift has been digitally powered with todays buyers only one touch away from connecting with content or peers that can help guide them on their purchasing journey. This presentation will explore the challenges that not only lay ahead for todays B2B marketers, but also explore some of the ways in which SAP is adapting to this 'New Reality’.
