Meet the Speakers

  • Kathryn Monkcom

    Head of Performance, Aira

    Talk: “CLV: From one-time purchase to loyal community”

    Why do you always buy the same brand of laundry detergent? It's because effective marketing doesn’t stop after the first purchase. In this session, Kathryn will explore how marketers can employ direct marketing tactics coupled with emotional connection to stay top of mind throughout the purchase lifecycle and build a loyal community of repeat customers.

  • Danielle Gipps

    Creative Strategy Manager, Revenue Growth Agency

    Talk: “The Social Soap Opera - Reimagining Paid Social like your favourite TV ads”

    We could argue that phones, tablets and laptops are the modern day TVs. As more and more consumers turn to handheld devices for entertainment, why does it seem that advertising hasn't adapted to this new ecosystem? This session will cover consumers behaviour and social/media consumption, audience attention, and most importantly, why Danielle believes your paid social strategy needs to begin to more closely reflect TV advertising strategies.
