Conference Description
Venue Change / Member Registration Fee Waiver –
ANA Marketing Accountability & Effectiveness Conference
We are delighted to announce that the June 2 ANA Marketing Accountability & Effectiveness Conference will now take place in the first-class meeting facilities at the offices of Deutsch Inc., 111 Eighth Avenue, New York City. This venue change from the Grand Hyatt does not affect the outstanding program we have planned. However, it does enable us to eliminate the registration fee for all ANA members. At this time we anticipate a strong turnout of approximately 150 people. A limited number of non-member attendees can be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis for a modest registration fee.
Protecting The 2010 Marketing Budget
Which decisions that you are making now, will determine where you, your brand and your company stand at the end of 2010?
In 2009 it’s more important than ever to prove marketing ROI and program effectiveness. The ANA is at the center of the marketing accountability and effectiveness movement and has consistently worked with marketers to forge the essential connection between marketing activity and business outcomes.
This year’s conference focuses on marketing in turbulent times and will examine the fundamental best practices that the most-effective marketing accountability programs are employing now to ensure a successful 2010.
Learn how successful senior-level marketers from companies such as Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Citizens Bank, and Denny’s drive accountability in their organizations. The "take home" value is significant as all speakers/panelists will be asked to identify actionable, recession-busting ideas that attendees can utilize immediately.

MARKETING THAT WORKS AND WE'LL PROVE IT: THE ENTERPRISE EXPERIENCE FROM ZERO TO ACCOUNTABLE
Enterprise Rent-a-Car Company is an operations-based company - operations are in their DNA. As a result, the marketing team had to prove that the initiatives they wanted to execute would generate an ROI. Working in this "show me the money" environment, forced the Enterprise marketing team to achieve the following:
-
Alignment of business and marketing goals
-
Marketing initiative based on customer insights
-
Focus on customer satisfaction to drive retention
Steve Smith, CMO, Enterprise Rent-a-Car will outline his principles for building a highly strategic marketing accountability and effectiveness program that drives business growth (yes, he will connect the dots and demonstrate how marketing actions generated real business growth) and gets senior management to not only believe in the power of marketing, but also to value their marketing investment. In 1988 Enterprise had little to no consumer marketing activity to speak of, today, well you'll see.

EARNING A PLACE AT THE TABLE: HOW DO MARKETING EXECUTIVES GET A SPOT IN THE C-SUITE?
In turbulent times, one of the first instincts is to slash costs, and marketing expenses are often at the top of the list. Better representation in the C-Suite could help marketing executives preserve or even increase their budgets, but how do they get there? How should marketing executives communicate their value proposition to prevent it from falling on deaf ears? What new skills do they or their organizations need to acquire? This panel will discuss why there isn't greater marketing representation in the C-Suite and what might help shift that dynamic. Ernst &Young will share the results of a recent CFO survey and research from company public filings on how many CMOs sit as part of senior executive teams, as a catalyst for discussion amongst four senior finance executives about their perspectives on marketing and how to bridge the gap between the drawing board and the board room.

TAKING RISKS IN THE DOWNTURN, CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TO?
The recession is increasing pressure on CMO's to deliver accountability. The safe choice is to go with the proven and to justify investing behind marketing efforts that are able to deliver calculated ROI. However, that's a model in a normal and stable market, something few of us are working in. Further, given the mood of the country, such extravagances as spots in the Super Bowl were seen by corporate America as politically incorrect -- to be dispensed along with corporate jets and bankers' bonuses. Denny's bucked the trend, bought big, drove buzz and word of mouth with television, PR, online, and a gutsy offer of a free Grand Slam breakfast. Importantly, its promotion got people talking about Denny's again, drove foot traffic, brand reappraisal, and residual sales.
Denny's CMO Mark Chmiel and Optimedia's CEO Antony Young will provide an inside view into:
-
How did they developed the idea.
-
How it was sold it to the board and franchisees.
-
Making it work. How the client team, agencies, restaurant owners, and front-line staff turned it into an integrated promotion.
-
Leveraging the PR.
-
Evaluating success.
-
Unexpected developments.

LESSONS LEARNED WHILE ESTABLISHING A MEDIA OPTIMIZATION PRACTICE
Everyone knew it was going to be complicated, so we made certain to follow best practices and take the time to do a thorough job. We quickly learned for every “best practice” there also comes a “real practice” which ultimately proves the expression easier said than done. Establishing this capability has helped us optimize our media investment to stretch a limited budget. However, we learned many valuable lessons along the way that weren’t necessarily in the manual. Culture change, commitment, setting expectations, and gaining corporate acceptance are just a few of the less-anticipated challenges, not to mention developing cross-functional teams or aggregating multiple data sources. This is a true story….

THE EVOLUTION IN COMMUNICATIONS STRATEGY - THE TROJAN STORY
Marketing condoms in the United States provides both challenges and opportunities. Recently, the U.S. has witnessed alarming trends in the sexual health of the nation (STD rates, unintended pregnancy, etc). While condoms provide proven protection against STDs and pregnancy, only 1 in 4 sex acts among single Americans involves a condom. Reaching our target market (adults 18-24) with messages that educate and portray condom usage as positive and responsible is a communications challenge. TV networks forbid primetime condom advertising. In addition, the U.S. government spent over $1.5 billion dollars on only abstinence until marriage programs that did not include condom education. To meet these challenges, the Trojan brand marketing team has had to significantly evolve its communications strategy, increasing efforts online and with public sector partners. Using metric-based strategic planning and monitoring, the Trojan team has been able to improve media efficiency and grow franchise sales.

"The Virtual Army Experience--A Potent Recruiting Tool"
The U.S. Army faces a constant struggle to achieve annual recruitment goals. Potential recruits describe current Army recruitment advertising as out of touch with their lives and irrelevant to their situation. A new approach called the Virtual Army Experience uses an event-based method that allows young people to learn about Army careers, experience a simulated mission, and meet Army soldiers in a non-threatening environment. This approach has accomplished the goals of generating quality leads, reducing the cost per lead, and improving qualitative perceptions of a career in the
