Have you heard? Houston is the American city of the future. As residents, we should take great pride in the diversity and opportunities available in our city. As professionals, we have our work cut out for us. Luckily for you, AMA Houston is creating an oasis for weary professionals with the Marketing Edge Conference.
While Houstonians are eager to spend money on everything from tacos to condos, they’ll sooner rely on a friend’s recommendation than an ad. We spend our time juggling many tasks: convincing audiences of our value, generating quality leads and staying top-of-mind in a very competitive market. Even the most extroverted social butterflies among us will admit these demands take a toll. Marketing Edge 2017 is a one-day intensive conference that brings together insights from across the nation to help you tackle the challenges we’re all facing.
Need help convincing your leadership that Marketing Edge is a must-attend for the future of your business? We’ve highlighted the top reasons to attend below.
1. Learn from Industry Innovators
Marketing Edge brings together thought leaders from across the country to energize and inspire new perspectives. Our keynote speakers this year are champion storyteller, Kindra Hall, Salesforce.com VP for strategic research, Peter Coffee, and the founder and CEO of May Designs, Mica May.
2. Gain Hands-On Experience
You can choose from various breakout sessions to learn from local innovators in small classroom settings. Learn from the best with founder of The Black Sheep Agency, Aimée Woodall, CEO of Skyline Houston, Craig Koopersmith, inbound marketing and sales authority for Hubspot, Dan Tyre, VP of sales for Choozle, Lonnie Buchanan, founder of SKYBOUND Coaching & Training, Glenn Taylor, and principal and VP of digital advertising at Decode Digital, Gavin Marks. No matter your industry, you’ll leave with actionable items to inform your future marketing decisions.
3. Connect with Your Tribe
Our industry thrives on exchange and growth. From networking meals to built-in breaks and happy hours, we designed every aspect of Marketing Edge to facilitate new connections. This event brings together over 300 passionate professionals driven to be the best at what they do. You’ll get the most if you come willing to share.
4. Location, Location, Location
Getting away for a multi-day conference would be impossible during this demanding season—if it was anywhere else. Forgo the flight for Marketing Edge. Attendees will only need to travel to CityCentre, a central location to learn and network.
