Marketing Survival Strategies for the Attention(less) Economy

Speaker: Jeremy Epstein
Time: 1:00 PM - 1:50 PM   Date: June 15
Track: Category 1

One of the most influential social scientists of the 20th century, Herbert Simon, remarked that “a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention.” Simon succinctly wraps up the challenges facing marketers in the Internet era. Inundated by information and media from all sides, prospects and clients continue to tune out and ignore traditional marketing tactics and message.

Firms of all sizes (with clients of all sizes) struggle with the central question: How do we effectively cut through all the noise to establish authentic dialogue and relationships and… make money?

Join Jeremy Epstein, a “Marketing Navigator for the Attention Economy,” in a lively, interactive (and remarkable!) presentation that will:

  • Help you understand the fundamental macro-societal shifts impacting marketers
  • Provide guidelines for how to thrive as a marketer in the new environment
  • Share the ground rules for the new marketing
  • Educate you on the key concepts of using Social Media as a marketing channel
  • Offer suggestions on the first steps on the road to a Word-of-Mouth/Social Media marketing strategy
