AdNews’ Media Summit kicks off on 19 May with a top line of the industry’s smartest thinkers.
The clip below gives you a taste of what is to come at the Media Summit, with AdNews editor Rosie Baker and Meat and Livestock Australia’s group marketing manager, Andrew Howie discuss a few of the hot topics on the line-up.
Howie talks on the changing and fragmented media landscape, the biggest complexities facing advertisers and how to cut through the distractions.
Howie says: “Not every brand has a role to play on social media. It’s important to understand what that social media channel can offer you brand. Just because millennials are in to Periscope or Snapchat, doesn’t mean you have the right to be on that channel. If you get it wrong, you can get in a lot of trouble.”
