TAPPING INTO CULTURAL MOMENTS WITH CREATOR-LED CAMPAIGNS

The media landscape is fragmented. That's why brands must look for innovative ways to drive relevance and deepen relationships with consumers across multiple channels. To keep brands relevant, marketers need to ride the waves of culture and partner with creators to join the conversation. One of the most significant cultural moments is the Super Bowl.

Join UScellular’s Zach Pospisil, The Martin Agency’s Allie Nordstrom, and Open Influence’s Suzanne Mead as they delve into “Phones Down for 5,” a successful campaign that tapped into the Super Bowl LVII audience. The campaign enlisted creators to re-enact moments during the game that could have been missed while viewers looked at their phones. The session will offer key takeaways on best practices for navigating successful creator partnerships.
