The Great, Big 2009 Marketing Forecast

Friday, December 19th, 2008

The Charlotte American Marketing Association (CAMA) has invited our very own Ron Edelen to join a panel of experts in their upcoming 2009 Marketing Forecast meeting. Sharing his views on the current market, Ron will aid in a discussion about our weakening economy and what to expect in the new year.

Consumers all over the U.S. are cutting down on purchases and constructing a stern line between their wants and needs. Some of this is out of necessity, and some is out of plain fear for the future- either way, its pushing marketers to develop new strategies in communicating to their audience. The key to survival in 2009 is simple: deliver spectacular results.

The CAMA will be joined with the local Business Marketing Association Chapter and co-sponsor, The Charlotte Business Journal to respond to worrisome market questions and share new tactics and strategies for tackling changes in consumer behavior. Moderated by Ritch Allison, Partner in Bain & Company’s Atlantic office, Ron will be one of four market leaders on the discussion panel.

The event is on January 14, 2009, from 6:30 – 8:00p at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Networking starts at 5- Come join us! Click Here to register.
