Changing Landscapes:
Marketing to the Multi-Channel Consumer

One day conference

Few could argue that the direct marketing landscape has changed dramatically in recent years. In fact, almost completely gone are the days when a single channel could deliver against commercial targets. With numerous channels at their disposal, the consumer holds all the cards – tipping the balance of power in their favour.

Now, the sensible option for the savvy direct marketer is to redouble their organisation’s marketing effort by building a multi-tiered communication strategy; a strategy that accommodates all the possible channels of choice of their consumer.

Representatives of all areas of the direct marketing world – clients and agencies - will rub shoulders with a vast array of senior practitioners at the top of their game. A range of speakers will present their approach to marketing to the multi-channel consumer, and how this approach helps them to maintain a competitive edge within an increasingly challenging economic climate
