Commerce Marketing Committee, Southwest Chapter

Description & Purpose
The Commerce Marketing Committee, Southwest Chapter is the "sister" committee of the Commerce Marketing Committee in New York City. Regardless of what industry you are in, or what titles your organization uses, this committee is for you if you help align the buying journey with your direct and indirect sales channels.

We recognize that a true win-win-win for manufacturer, sales channel, and consumer/shopper requires insights, collaborative planning and solutions between the product/service and the sales channel (i.e. retail, e-commerce, m-commerce, direct-to-consumer) regardless of whether your business is shoes, banking, gasoline, mattresses, fitness-as-a-service or staplers.

With the growth of technology, the decrease in attention spans, the 24/7 always-on shopper, and new e-commerce solutions, you are being challenged to create leading integrated commerce experiences while driving growth. Regardless of how you convert sales and delight your customers, we encourage you to join our committee.
