As marketers, we’re constantly bombarded with event invitations. I don’t know about you, but I typically delete most of them, as I’m just too busy, focused on my day-to-day. BUT – it’s really critical that we take the time to attend industry events to stay current on trends, privacy regulations, best practices, etc. Plus, I always find it even more meaningful to connect with my marketing brothers and sisters to share war stories and refuel my passion for all things marketing.
However – picking the right event is no small task, as there are SO many different types:
• Association events
• User events
• Large horizontal events
• Small intimate events
• Everything in between
Where does that leave us? Confused is probably the best answer, so our goal today is to recommend some events based on areas of focus and opportunities to improve our day-to-day. Without further ado – here is our list of top marketing events you won’t want to miss in 2020!
