Stephen Wright And Darren Discuss The State Of The Media Pitch In Australia

Stephen Wright is TrinityP3’s Media Business Director, responsible for managing and facilitating some of this country's most high-profile media pitches for more than a decade. He is here to discuss the implications for media agencies and their pitches based on the State of The Pitch Australia Research results.

Since the pandemic, there has been an increasingly vocal call from agencies worldwide to ditch the pitch and trade media have run headlines and opinion pieces claiming the pitch is broken and even dead.

As Australia and APAC’s leading pitch consultancy, we noticed that while there were plenty of opinions, there was very little data on this topic, so we undertook our own research called The State of the Pitch in Australia. Run from June to December last year, the report makes it interesting to read what is going on and what is going wrong with pitching.

James Greet And Darren Discuss The Ethics And Challenges Of Zero Net Marketing

James Greet is a long-time creative media leader and the co-founder of The Payback Project Australia, a specialist advisory working with Marketers, Agencies and Media owners to help plan a path to net zero by reducing & removing carbon emissions related to content creation and media activities, and in the process become a force for good.

In business today there are a range of ethical and moral challenges. One that has particularly caught the advertising industry is its role in the developing climate crisis. An industry that drives growth could also be seen to drive consumption and, therefore, greenhouse gas emissions.

This has come to a head recently with a campaign by Clean Creative, Comms Declare, and others to name and shame advertising agencies and comms companies that work for fossil fuel clients.

When fossil fuel clients go to the market to select an agency, both sides come to the party: one side ridicules the agencies that pitch for the business, the other side justifies their position. Who is right?

Matt Newell And Darren Chat The Rise Of Retail Brand And Brand Experience

Matt Newell is a partner and CEO of The General Store, a retail specialist agency that deals with strategy, brand identity, advertising, store design, and technology.

When you think about retail advertising and marketing, what comes to mind? Loud, shouting, in-your-face advertising with massive price discount offers? This is the clique many are stuck with. But in fact, retail marketing is about building a destination brand, either online or in the real world, and optimising the customer experience from beginning to end, with the results of your work known almost immediately.

Matt believes more marketers are realising that the same disciplines that build solid and successful retail brands are the ones that can build all brands in the face of a rapidly changing business environment.

Nathan Hodges And Darren Chat Trends In The Design Of Bespoke Agency Solutions

Nathan Hodges, TrinityP3 Managing Director Australia and New Zealand, has spent the last decade assessing and designing agency rosters for clients around the globe. He recently noticed a distinct trend in the way bespoke agencies are being developed and implemented.

Once upon a time, advertisers would appoint what was known as an agency, record, or AoR. This agency would provide most, if not all, of their agency needs. But in the age of technology and digital communications, those needs exponentially increased. Suddenly, marketers required a village of agencies to meet all their needs. Then, the bespoke agency arrived. And today, it is evolving.

Anton Buchner And Darren Discuss Marketing Technology And What Is It Good For

Anton Buchner is the Marketing Strategist at Front Foot Marketing, Senior Consultant at TrinityP3 and widely known as the ROI Guy as he has built a career advising on measuring and optimising customer value to drive ROI.

Anton has observed the explosion of technology in the marketing space and has seen increasing disconnection from proving that it increases customer value.

While AI promises to have a huge impact on technology generally and marketing technology specifically, a revolution is happening in the MarTech space that will demand the attention of marketing leaders everywhere. And that is a process of detangling the tech mess many organisations find themselves in today.
