BrandSmart is the Midwest’s leading forum on branding thought leadership. This full-day conference is attended by mid- and senior-level marketers looking to elevate their brands through best practices and application-packed insights delivered by the Chicago AMA, the largest chapter of the American Marketing Association.
2012 theme – owning the tectonic Shifts in Marketing Marketers constantly need to deal with rapidly changing disruptive forces while balancing
existing resources. How well marketers adapt to these forces—determines how successful their brand will be.
The Chicago AMA will serve up the biggest, baddest, and most disruptive forces of change at BrandSmart 2012 and enable marketers how to OWN them.
But, instead of just talking about them, we’re going to educate attendees how to use them; Attendees will receive a custom playbook that translates the themes presented into actionable strategies for their own brand. Based on how attendees characterize their organization, the playbook will provide them with segmented, unique insights to implement several innovations, which could feature your product or services solutions. The playbook will be a printed document with an accompanying dynamically updated digital version.
