A Land Without Silos

Most CMOs don’t care about the names of agency departments or specific elements on a given media plan; they care most about the cumulative outcome of those ingredients and whether they are advancing business growth. The agency of the future seeks to view investments marked by agency nomenclature as valuable assets in a single portfolio. Hear an agency exec speak about why we need to connect and collapse elements of our investment apparatus around our client needs and how we can connect specialist talent.

Tracking a brand’s net promoter score is a great way to tell if a campaign is performing the way it should be. If you score falls, it is time to pause the media until we figure out what’s going on, whether it is a problem with a product price, the website functionality or the actual media buy. In this session, Nedim Aruz will walk through how campaign failure could be a blessing in disguise.
