Brand Investment for Long Term, Sustainable Growth Event Sponsored by Google

Working at the crossroads of brand strategy, storytelling, creativity and entrepreneurialism, James Hurman coined the term, Future Demand.

 

This has quickly become a favoured mental model amongst brand builders and world-class agencies alike. Developed alongside the brand tracking dashboard, Tracksuit, James’ conversation will help you advocate for the importance of brand investment for long-term, sustainable growth.

 

In summary you'll hear about:

  • Driving buying in of marketing and advertising to non-marketing stakeholders with Future Demand as a mental model

  • How to market marketing

  • Advertising during a recession
