The future of customer engagement - and why it’s all about tapping into herd instincts
by Mark Earls

Big Bold and not Boring
Branded Content is now quickly becoming as an ubiquitous marketing communication principle to drive consumer engagement and social conversation as 'Ads' were in the last century. But mostly it is still applied as a campaign or program tactic, not embraced as a brand strategy. After all, the transition from message distributor to content producer represents not only a different mind-set from brands but also a significant re-organisation of resources and budget.
Patou will show some of Ogilvy's best work for clients such as IBM, Louis Vuitton, Perrier and Coca-Cola to illustrate how Big Brands are moving forward, how Ogilvy is developing its Branded Entertainment capability at the heart of its advertising agency through a.o. real collaboration with the Media & Content Industry... resulting - we hope you'll agree - in Big Bold Brand Building Solutions that are far from Boring.

Digital Marketing: The art of tapping into human behaviour

Successfully understanding human behaviour additionally allows marketers to use technology to heuristically adapt in real-time to influence consumer behaviour, resulting in reduced costs and an improved lifetime value of consumers. Questions answered : What are the most important aspects of human behaviour for marketers to understand? How can digital services, tools and products tap into the themes of ease, social and habit? How can businesses utilise this knowledge to encourage a deeper engagement that actually triggers purchases, by adopting behaviour-changing techniques? What technology exists to track user preference and trigger behavioural change?

TOTAL DIGITAL 2.0
by Paul Mallet
A session for senior marketers who are responsible for planning & managing multiplatform digital communications.

Table Top: Artists find an innovative new way to make money thanks to CueSongs
by Tammy Weis
Tammy Weis is one of many recording artists who have ‘joined the Cue’ (well CueSongs that is) It’s a new company that music innovator Peter Gabriel has co founded. CueSongs provides ‘Ready to go’ music licensing by well known artists. Tammy has seen success in her native Canada, Europe and London where she now resides. But like many successful musicians, she still struggles to support herself soley on her music….until now It was last summer when she watched CueSongs CEO Ed Averdieck (co-founder along with Gabriel) do a presentation on the company.
She immediately knew she wanted to be involved. After the session she introduced herself and gave a brief background of her music and media sales experience. To her surprise Ed responded by saying ‘I know you; I just heard you on BBC Radio Four Woman's Hour!' and the rest is history Weis, like so many other artists realizes that only a relatively small proportion of copyrights earn licensing income in syncs at the moments. CueSongs plans to create a new revenue stream for artists and writers, consisting of hundreds of thousands of smaller sized transactions, and bring new money into the music business.
Our current partners include: Sony Music, Sony ATV, Peer Music, MusicSales, Real World, Infectious, Skint & Black Hole Recordings . As well, some of our artists include: Ferry Corsten, Boy George, Peter Gabriel, Katrina & the Waves , Ziggy Marley and the Stereo MC's to name a few Questions answered : How can I reduce the headache of music licensing?
