MARKETERS, MAKE PROCUREMENT YOUR FRIEND
Procurement is a task that marketers rarely find fun, yet all realize that it needs to be done. Given the strain that many marketing budgets are under, skillful procurement processes — supply management, demand management, and process management — can actually net an extra 5%+ of current marketing budgets. McKinsey will discuss the trends and opportunities for closer collaboration between Marketing and Procurement. This session will also discuss the strategic issues and challenges that Marketing is facing in a digital world and the implications for how marketing collaborates with partners and efficiencies.

WITH OVER 400 MILLION DEALS, A GREAT PRICE IS ONLY HALF THE BATTLE
The origins of Groupon came out of thepoint.com, a website launched in 2007 that got people to invest as a group and generate a tipping point to procure the item at hand. Groupon was started as a side project of The Point and has grown to become a major portal of the “Deal Site” community.  Groupon’s new CPO will discuss the first 100 days and the challenges faced within a dynamic business model. From building relationships with marketing…  to creating a global procurement organization from scratch... to facilitating controlled growth in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial organization … to earning the status of trusted advisor …  to finding out what drives colleagues, so success can be a cooperative experience from the start.

GETTING THE MOST OUT OF TELEVISION PRODUCTION IN ILLINOIS
Production Incentives and advertiser awareness of state commercial production incentives are on the rise.  Many states now offer compelling financial incentives to shoot commercials in their state and more and more advertisers are reaping those benefits. Kraft Foods Group and The Landgraf Consulting Group will share how procurement and marketing can take advantage of this underused opportunity – especially when doing production in the “Land of Lincoln.”
