TheIndustry.beauty LIVE! Marketing in beauty - the next frontier

Join us on 20th September for TheIndustry.beauty LIVE! to hear from specialists and gain practical advice on the next frontier of marketing in beauty.

Digital marketing and social media have been the driving force behind the explosive growth in the beauty market over the past decade. But are consumers at risk of being saturated with information and overloaded with inspiration?

How can established brands keep ahead of the curve and how can emerging brands get in on the act?

We look at ways to deploy tech, data and creativity to gain standout from the crowd, reach new customers and retain and grow existing customers.

The programme is as follows:

11:00 Arrivals, Coffees & Cookies

11:30 Welcome from Lauretta Roberts, Editor in chief, TheIndustry.beauty

12:35 Growing your brand: What can we learn about brand growth from the innovators behind some of beauty's most successful start-up and scale-up stories? Ed Currie & Andy Coxon, Founders of AKT London.

14:10 Maths and magic – the dream partnership for success: Beauty marketing is as competitive and complex as it has ever been. In this session, Chief Data Scientist, Kevin Davis and Creative Director, Rob Steeles, leaders at the Sideshow Group (a global group of evidence-led marketing agencies each expert in their field),  team up to explain their ingredients for success. 'The Magic': Today’s beauty customers respond to authenticity – real people with real stories and real emotion behind them. We look at ways to lead with emotion and make a meaningful connection as a brand, and 'The Maths': how to align what’s good for customers with what’s good for the business through customer economics. This is the route to improved decision making and profitable growth.
