NETWORKING BREAKFAST (9:00-9:45AM)

INTRODUCTIONS & NETWORKING “FIRESTARTER” SESSION (9:45-10:00AM)
One of the benefits of ANA Committees is the ability to share and learn from fellow marketers in a “closed door” environment and to leverage and share knowledge and insights with marketing peers.  Often times, many marketers have similar challenges in areas like measurement, content marketing, digital advertising, social media best practices, walled gardens, working with influencers, programmatic, how to tap into new technologies like VR, AI, and AR, agency management, etc.  During introductions, we will ask members to share 1-2 “hot topics” or key areas of focus/challenge in the digital & social space as a way to facilitate more one-to-one networking between members with similar challenges during coffee breaks and lunch.

LUNCH (12:30 – 1:15PM)


IV. SOCIAL MEDIA BEST PRACTICES TO DRIVE ROI (1:15 – 2:00PM)
Social media has cemented itself as its own marketing channel. Long gone is the novelty of judging social media by vanity metrics as marketers are being called on to justify the costs in terms of dollar returns. Jim Meskauskas and Ben Dumas from iNvolved Media will share insights on how to define the particular goals of your brand and segment into categories to be tracked. They will also cover tools available for measurement, and best practices to help ensure you are maximizing your social media investments.

Speakers:
Jim Meskauskas, General Manager – iNvolved Media
Ben Dumas, SVP of Digital – iNvolved Media
