iCrossing Hosts Content Marketing Workshop at the DMA 2011 Annual Conference
First-of-its-Kind "Global Event for Real-Time Marketers"
NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- iCrossing, a global digital marketing agency, announced today it is leading a content marketing workshop at the DMA2011 Conference & Exhibition, "The Global Event for Real-Time Marketers," in Boston. This pre-conference intensive workshop, being held on Saturday, October 1 and Sunday, October 2, will help marketers learn how to build a connected brand in a real-time marketing environment.
According to iCrossing, brands now need to build relationships with consumers by publishing useful and engaging content for audiences across bought, earned and owned media - and often in real time, given the social and interactive nature of digital.
During the workshop, iCrossing will lead a conversation on how CMOs can connect with consumers in this real-time environment through a connected marketing framework. Specific topics to be covered include audience listening strategies, approaches to content creation, online engagement and measurement.
"CMOs must learn to connect in real time - or get left behind in today's 'always on' world," said Adam Lavelle, chief strategy officer, iCrossing. "This workshop will explore how marketers can learn to leverage content and interactions in new ways in order to remain relevant."
iCrossing has launched several initiatives to help CMOs become real-time marketers. The agency recently launched its Live Media Studio, the interactive industry's first-ever resource dedicated to real-time marketing. Earlier this year, it published The Content Lab (http://thecontentlab.icrossing.com / follow @TheContentLab), an online initiative designed to bring brands, media companies and agencies together to explore the future of content. iCrossing and Hearst also released a whitepaper, Building a Connected Brand: How Brands Become Publishers in a Real-time Marketing World.
