Overview

These are the most difficult economic times in the history of Pakistan. Marketers are struggling to justify their budgets and are constantly being asked to do more with less. Marketing is frequently viewed with skepticism by non-marketing business executives and when times are tough; it is often one of the first budget cuts. For marketing managers the challenge of providing concrete results is amplified since branding and awareness are “fuzzy’ and are not directly related to sales revenue. This one day learning retreat is intended for any one in marketing who wants to significantly improve his or her marketing performance and justify marketing spending, and for non-marketing managers who want to drive real results from marketing. So for a much focused approach, Channel 7 and EOS Consultants are bringing up 3 gurus together to highlight the consumer insights. The gurus will share the challenges, opportunities and the global approaches towards the consumer targeting. These gurus will also share the experience based learning with the participants from the top notch companies of Pakistan.
