HOSTED BY

APRIL 23, 2015 IRVINE, CA

Hello and ...

Welcome to the first Brand Innovators Mobile and Millennials summit in Southern California!

“Know your customer” may be the most important mantra in business today. Perhaps the only thing more important, however, than knowing your customer is knowing your next generation of customers. For Fortune 500 and other leading brands that means knowing and understanding millennials --- the future of your business is in their hands.

Brandon Gutman Co-Founder

Marc Sternberg Co-Founder

Millennials --- generally defined as consumers born after 1982 --- are the fastest growing generation on earth, and they will soon be the most influential. Retail industry analysts predict that over the next five years millennials will have more purchasing power than any other generation. At the same time, they are still forming their own opinions and preferences about different brands, making it even more important for brand marketers to build relationships and engage with these young consumers while the window is still open. Finally, millennials are the first generation of “digital natives,” consuming virtually all of their media on digital devices.

Brand Innovators Mobile and Millennials will provide brand marketers from Fortune 500 and other leading brands with an important forum to share success stories and discuss the challenges and opportunities inherent in marketing to millennials. The goal is to provide you with the knowledge and information that you need to know to ensure your brand’s long-term success.

Thank you to all of our attendees and speakers who contributed to our program. We invite you to participate in the discussion, and to share your ideas with your fellow brand marketers in the Brand Innovators community, both during and after our event.

Extra special thanks to our friends at Taco Bell for hosting Brand Innovators Mobile and Millennials.

Enjoy the day and we look forward to seeing you, again, at our next Brand Innovators Summit! You’ll find the dates at www.brand-innovators.com/events.

MARKETING TO MILLENNIALS: THE X FACTOR

Tyler Oakley, Content Creator and YouTube Personality Max Polisar, SVP-Sales, Awesomeness.TV

Courting and marketing to Millennials, or consumers born after 1982, is not only important, but crucial to your brand’s long-term success. Millennials are the fastest growing generation on the planet and they will soon be the most influential. Over the next five years, retail industry analysts predict that these young consumers will have more purchasing power than any other generation.

At the same time, they are still forming their opinions about different brands and determining brand loyalty and preferences. Finally, Millennials represent the first generation of digital “natives” or individuals who have grown up on the Internet and mobile devices. Understanding how and when and on what platform to reach these consumers has become a science in and of itself. It is essential that brands leverage all of the digital tools available them — including digital video advertising, mobile, social media, and content marketing — to build relationships with Gen Y and Gen X. Take a deep dive into all of the challenges and opportunities inherent in marketing to your next generation of consumers.

10:20 am ENTERTAINMENT AND CONTENT 2015: MILLENNIALS AND GEN Z Marketers have barely begun to figure out millennials, a generation so nuanced their media and consumer habits differ from each other, as much as they do from that of previous generations, but already, a new demographic has begun to emerge that will prove just as challenging: Gen Z. Key to engaging this new group of consumers is content. Great content must resonate with consumers, in order for them to believe it, share it, and reflect positively on your brand.

This panel will explore what we’ve learned about Millennials and Gen Z so far, through the lens of the entertainment and content: Movies, Video, Music, Gaming and more.

THE NEXT GENERATION OF TALENT: NEW MEDIA STARS

Moderator: Kim Thom, Director, NinthDecimal George Haynes, Head of Digital Media Marketing, Caesars Entertainment Sabrina Sirhal, National Manager, Kia Media Planning

Today’s entertainment landscape spans well beyond TV and Film, and even the likes of HBO and Netflix, to include an array of emerging media and platforms.

From YouTube to Vine to Snapchat to Instagram, and now Periscope and Meerkat, each medium entails a different set of consumption habits, but most importantly, a new breed of content and content creator. How does this next generation of talent think about producing that content? How do they work with brands, if they think about it at all? How do they engage with their audiences?

We get inside the minds of these new media stars to understand their creative process, entrepreneurial instincts, and what lies ahead.

Jim Tobin, President, Ignite Social Media What worked in social media marketing just a few short years ago is unlikely to work today. Generating organic impressions on owned social channels has gotten much more difficult. At the same time, early influencer networks such as Federated Media and Say Media have struggled to stay afloat. But social is, if anything, more important than ever for discovering new products to buy. Given those challenges, what approaches can a brand take in 2015?
