What are the essentials you need to consider when planning your creative, digital and media activity for 2023?
Next year is shaping up to be a challenging one for business as they battle against a backdrop of market volatility, financial uncertainty and the resulting reduction in consumer confidence and spend. When faced with tough times, it can be important to go back to basics and ensure that you are planning and delivering the right things, to the right people at the right time. Get the essentials right, and the rest can more easily fall into place.
This event will highlight the 23 essentials you need to consider in planning your 2023 marketing activity. Covering creative, digital, media, resources, revenue and risk, our speakers will offer insights and advice to those who may not have a high level of marketing experience or sufficient in-house resources to effectively plan and deliver a solid marketing performance that can mean the difference between success and failure in the year ahead.
