The ANA Masters of Marketing
Conference is all about growth.
Whether it’s moving the needle
on consumer engagement,
investing in data and analytics,
building teams that can adapt and
evolve, or boosting the bottom
line, success for marketers
means building momentum and
driving growth.
HERE ARE 10 TAKEAWAYS FROM
THIS YEAR’S CONFERENCE.
3. “Much of what we
express as content belongs
in a box and should never
be opened, because it’s
a trap — a content crap trap
— never to be caught in.”
— MARC PRITCHARD, ANA CHAIRMAN AND
CHIEF BRAND OFFICER AT PROCTER & GAMBLE

4. Consumers deserve a good experience when watching ads. Brands need to
step up their game and provide ads that sell and that are of a good enough
quality that consumers will actually stick around to watch them.

6. From live events to virtual reality to long-form branded content,
marketers have no shortage of ways to find and connect with an audience,
and then tell powerful stories that fuel a brand’s momentum.

working knowledge of what’s
out there and empower your
people to make decisions.”
— DENISE KARKOS, CMO AT TD AMERITRADE

8. You don’t have to be an expert in everything from analytics to Gen Z,
but you should know enough. Hire the right people who are experts and
rely on them for their knowledge and to help make informed decisions.

9. “You need to have a content-first
ecosystem. It’s all about your
consumers. Let them know
you care about them.”
— STEPHANIE MCMAHON, CHIEF BRAND OFFICER AT
WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT (WWE)

10. Beyond the quality of your product, consumers need a reason to care
for your brand. Telling meaningful stories that have purpose and
provide value can lead to a powerful brand-consumer connection.

11. “Scale and personalization
are a must in today’s market.”

CONSUMER COMPANIES

12. General messaging that’s not directed at any particular audience will
no longer cut it. The technology exists to create personalized messages and
deliver them at mass scale, and marketers need to adapt.

13. “Be radically simple.”
— CONNIE WEAVER, EVP AND CMO AT TIAA
13© Copyright 2016 by the Association of National Advertisers, Inc. All rights reserved.
14. Communicate in a visual way, with plain language, and with a singular
message. The world is complicated enough; don’t make consumers have to
puzzle out your brand value. Be clear and purposeful in your communications.
14© Copyright 2016 by the Association of National Advertisers, Inc. All rights reserved.
15. “Collaboration is messy. It means
pushing against that stubborn mindset
of ‘We’ve always done it this way.’”
— DIEGO SCOTTI, VP AND CMO AT VERIZON COMMUNICATIONS
15© Copyright 2016 by the Association of National Advertisers, Inc. All rights reserved.
16. Collaboration is a key to innovation and breakthrough marketing,
but it can sometimes be difficult to achieve when there’s a culture
of complacency. Persevere, push, and build teams that can
work together to move the brand forward.

17. “We have a motto at Shake Shack:
‘The bigger we get, the smaller
we need to act.’”
— EDWIN BRAGG, VP OF MARKETING AND
COMMUNICATIONS AT SHAKE SHACK

18. Keeping a focus on community and maintaining an active dialogue
with customers can drive a passionate following for your brand.

19. “The world is clearly changing,
and too many people …
are holding on to the past.”
— GARY VAYNERCHUK, OWNER OF VAYNER MEDIA
19© Copyright 2016 by the Association of National Advertisers, Inc. All rights reserved.
20. Innovation and disruption are two sides of the same coin. Marketers need
to be nimble enough to respond and adapt when disruption happens, and
ready to pounce when an opportunity to evolve comes their way.

21. “I will not sign my name
to anything unless I feel it
brings pride and honor to
my father’s name. That’s the
standard I would ask you to
hold yourselves accountable
to, and that you hold your
people to. When you do that,
you’ll inspire great work.”
— JIM SPEROS, EVP OF CORPORATE
COMMUNICATIONS AT FIDELITY INVESTMENTS

22. Quality is more than justifying the cost of something. Make sure that
what you create is worth the time and energy that went into it —
and that the end result is something you can be proud of.
