Our roleSenior marketing leadership

This case study reflects work led by Jennifer Summers in a previous senior marketing role.

The challenge

Converting recognition into commercial performance

The event had significant international recognition and an established audience, alongside ambitious targets for paid attendance, delegate revenue and qualified sponsorship demand. The marketing programme needed to convert existing awareness and audience interest more consistently, while providing clearer visibility of the activity contributing to revenue, conversion and commercial lead value.

The approach

How the programme was managed

01

The marketing programme was refocused around the audiences with the strongest propensity to attend, purchase or engage commercially, with campaign priorities aligned to the event's pricing and sales cycle. Audience data was consolidated and structured to expand the addressable market and support more precise segmentation by geography, role, seniority, engagement and buying intent.

02

Email became part of a coordinated lifecycle programme, with messaging, content and creative tailored to different audience segments and stages of consideration. Delegate acquisition and sponsorship demand were planned against shared commercial priorities across marketing, website, data and sales activity.

03

Reporting connected channel performance with ticket revenue, conversion and qualified opportunity value. These insights informed investment, campaign priorities and ongoing optimisation throughout the event cycle.
