WHY YOU MUST ATTEND

1. TAKE CONTROL OFYOUR FUTURE: Recent research has revealed that ChiefMarketing Officers are most accountable and first on the chopping block iftop line revenue targets are missed. Never has there been a better time forChief Marketing Officers to reposition themselves by taking control of thegrowth agenda. Either step up and get a seat at the table or get left behind.

2. ALIGN WITH YOUR CORPORATE BUSINESS STRATEGY: In an age of newertechnology and empowered customers, marketing has truly become astrategic discipline. You must harness your knowledge of markets andcustomers to determine what new key areas to compete in, what segmentsto target, and what strategies to adopt in order do drive substantial growth.

3. CREATE A CUSTOMER CENTRIC ORGANIZATION: The difference betweensuccessful companies and those who fail, or fail to grow, is how they ensurelong term customer loyalty and sustainable competitive advantage. To becometruly customer centric requires a highly collaborative effort of all functionswithin a company along with every employee becoming a customer champion.As a marketer, you must be at the forefront of representing the customer inyour strategic marketing plans.

4. TECHNOLOGY AND SKILLS ARE EVOLVING: Because of changing technologyeveryone needs to have their skills honed, especially your employees. Thefuture workforce must be data driven and technology savvy. Do you haveenough talent in house? Strategically thinking, the big question is do you trainyour in house workforce on the latest technology or source from other areas?Risk vs reward...

5. BECOME A STRATEGIC ASSET TO SALES: When sales are down "its alwaysmarketing's fault". This is unacceptable. How do you tip the scales in yourfavor? What does marketing need to do to be viewed as a strategic asset insale's eyes? Strategic marketing does not equal sales but it is up to you totarget the best opportunities. How will you deliver on this growth factor?

SESSION ABSTRACT:A 2015 study published in the Journal of Marketing found clear evidence thatmarketing positively impacts both short-term and long-term shareholder value.Yet, marketers are often relegated to the unenviable role of desk jockeys, partyplanners or slaphappy spenders. To earn and keep a seat at the boardroom tablerequires the Chief Marketing Officer to align the marketing agenda to that ofthe enterprise, all while retaining what makes marketing such a unique functionin the first place – equal parts intuition and reason, a perfect cocktail of analyticsand creativity. Doing so offers boundless opportunity to reclaim the function’srightful position in driving the company’s growth agenda.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:g A framework for transforming B2B marketing teams toward a company-

first agenda, trading tired marketing practices for a strategic, integratedfunction

g A template for measuring marketing’s true value to the enterpriseg Lessons learned from successful and unsuccessful reincarnations of
