Date: Tuesday, 09 June 2009

While most of marketers are struggling with chopped budget and consumers have been changing their spending patterns after this credit crunch, some marketers still keep their business growing as usual. Mr. Michael Yang shares his views on how those marketers beat this downturn by introducing 2 case studies in the UK: the UK post office “Royal Mail” and the coolbrand restaurant “Wagamama” in London.

This speech covers marketing issues for business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) in the speech. Mr. Yang will guide you through how Royal Mail is reviving the shrinking market of business direct mail by a series of sensory marketing campaigns, and how Wagamama becomes a dining phenomenon in the UK by implementing a creative extended marketing mix. Mr. Yang’s speech is for all marketers, especially those who are looking for innovative marketing strategies and tactics. Attendants may benefit from the following in the speech:

  • How to integrate direct mail with the digital world
  • How to apply techniques of direct marketing to distribute trials wisely and test new products in the market effectively
  • How to work on strategic marketing planning
  • How to discover a sustainable market segment
  • How to develop the extended marketing mix (7Ps)
