Wednesday 29 June

  • 10.40 – 11.10
  • Reverse viral marketing – brands in an online crisis
    Adam Lewis, Director, Immediate Future

  • Marketeers are often striving for information about their brand to go viral. The reverse is true in a crisis. In the social media age, a small issue can quickly spread like wildfire and escalate into a full-blown crisis. During my talk I will give an analysis of how an online crisis might break and what happens to a brand in the process, peppering with recent case-studies. I will discuss ‘vaccines’ a brand can take to reduce the chances of getting caught up in one and best practice examples of how to ‘contain’ if it does happen.
  • 16.00-16.30
  • How to approach Social Media and the Importance of investing in resource and content
    Martin Harrison, Head of Social Media, Tullo Marshall Warren (TMW)

  • How to sustain a conversation about a global TV ad for 16 weeks. Aligning local content and Social Media with global launches and centrally produced communications can be tricky. This case study shows how Lynx were able to leverage global, local and hyper local assets to generate conversation about the idea behind a global ad for 16 weeks (and counting).
