DOMINO’S PIZZA: INNOVATION AS MARKETING The best way to change a consumer’s perception of a brand is to change the way they experience it. This was the founding principal behind the Domino’s brand and business turnaround. Innovation doesn’t always have to be about radical new products or services, but a simple shift in the way the consumer experiences the product – combined with breakthrough marketing – can totally change brand perceptions. This session will provide the inside scoop on the process of how Domino’s went from the least preferred to most preferred chain pizza brand and created uber-fans out of lapsed users (we call them Boomerangs) by innovating both the product and the way the product went to market.

INNOVATE BEYOND PRODUCTS Too often, we equate innovation with new products. While amazing products can certainly captivate and inspire us, there's almost always more going on under the hood. Worse, product innovation wars are expensive and deliver little in the way of sustainable competitive advantage. Bigger, bolder innovations incorporate multiple types of innovation, look beyond products to deliver new business models, new platforms, and new customer experiences, and deliver years of differentiation and growth. This talk will deliver some insights, inspiration and practical tools and advice for generating breakthroughs.
