Bringing Designers and Marketers Together. i.e., kill the creative brief and start talking. Presented by Jonathan Cleveland of Cleveland Design and Elizabeth Darragh of Sensitech. Monday, April 30, 11:15 AM – 12:00 PM
Marketing and design approach everything differently, which makes harmony a challenge. It’s often said that Marketing approaches the work as if talking to a group (i.e. how the overall campaign will help sway a new audience of customers to their product), while the Creative’s approach is as if talking to one person (i.e. how an individual will react to the visuals, products and brand). The goal for both is to fulfill the brand promise, but they can’t do that unless they can align marketing strategy and creative and speak the same language from the beginning.
In this presentation, Jonathan Cleveland, Principal of Cleveland Design and Elizabeth Darragh, VP of Global Marketing Communications for Sensitech, will describe the evolution of their 13 year relationship as designer and marketer and share a case study of a recent rebrand (including for market and product segments, position acquisitions, and development of a new website) that combined the talents and skills of everyone involved and brings a unified voice, great visuals, and a successful market strategy. Save yourself 12 years and come to listen, learn and talk.
