Description - TBA

Speakers

  • James Roach, Head Of Digital PR @ Honcho

Talk: "Crafting kick ass digital PR ideas that (hopefully) work"

Description:

Discover the secret ingredients that make a digital PR campaign idea land. From nailing the creative brief to the 6 key questions you need to ask of every idea you have.

  • Beth Crowe, Growth Director @ Digitaloft

Talk: "Pitch Slapped: What losing taught us about winning..."

Description:

Most agencies pitch what clients want to hear. The best ones pitch what they need to know.
In this talk, I will pull back the curtain on the pitches that didn't go to plan, and the hard lessons that followed.
From reading the room too late, to taking your own team for granted, to discovering that landing a big brand isn't always the win it looks like on paper: this is the unfiltered post-mortem most agencies never give.
You'll learn how to build client relationships that outlast a lost pitch, why upsells are never as safe as they seem, and how to stop chasing vanity metrics in favour of the thing clients actually care about: commercial growth.
Because sometimes the best thing that can happen to your agency is losing. As long as you're paying attention.

  • Gerry White, SEO Strategiest @ Dergal

Talk: "TBA"

Description - TBA

Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and expand your knowledge. See you there!
