Emma Logan is the founder and chief connections officer of the Emma Logan Project, which helps marketers stop blending in and start standing out. Emma has spent the past 14 years as an insider to the upper echelons of marketing and media leadership, holding senior roles in Australia, the UK, and New Zealand. 

Now, while there has never been a more exciting time to be a marketer, it is also one of the most challenging. Rapidly changing technology, fragmented media channels, and increased demands for accountability is impacting senior marketers. Operating under these tougher employment conditions and often unrealistic expectations, many marketers are choosing to stay safe, which is impacting behaviour. Emma discusses the challenges marketing leaders are facing and how they are adapting to this changing environment.

Here is a question: how many ways are there to pay your advertising agency? No, this is not a joke or a riddle. 

Although, the fact that the advertising industry considers itself a “creative” industry and the dominant way they are paid is still the same as labourers and unskilled workers (that is by the hour), is a joke.

To discuss this issue and explore the many ways they can be paid, please welcome back to the Managing Marketing Podcast, the commercially savvy, hands-on Finance Director, a CPA with more than two decades of experience managing the finances of media, creative, PR agencies and more, Nick Hand.

Damien Thomson is the CEO & Co-Founder of Net Zero Media, a purpose built technology to effectively measure and analyse the emissions associated with all media and marketing activity.

While the President of the United States of America promises to “drill, baby, drill“ for oil and gas, the rest of the world is focusing on ways to transition to a sustainable energy model.

However, when discussing how to minimise the impact of the climate crisis, much of the conversation focuses on industries such as transport, construction, energy, and the more obvious greenhouse gas emitters. The role media and advertising play is often overlooked. Yet advertising produces more GHG emissions than the aviation industry.

Damien shares his perspective on the current and future state of carbon measurement in media and advertising and the role each of us must play.

Belinda Lodge is the founder and CEO of iPopulate, a well known recruitment agency for advertising professionals.

In a frank and wide-ranging discussion, Belinda and Ellie talk about bootstrapping a business with $400 and a milk crate; what a good recruitment consultant can bring to the table, and how perception of consultancy is blurred by individuals and organisations untrained in the discipline of recruiting; the best and the worst in candidates, and candidate selection, post-COVID; the scourge of under and over-remuneration of talent, international v local talent, and more - all threaded with Belinda’s infectious enthusiasm, her candid observations and her genuine love for her craft and for the advertising industry.

​​In a world where we all appreciate a laugh, a titter, a guffaw, a chuckle, a chortle, a giggle, a cackle, a howl or a snigger, Emily shares the power of humour in advertising and marketing and why marketers and agencies need to take the risk.

Arvind Hickman is the features and analysis editor of marketing trade media title B&T. He is a journalist and editor with experience across sport, HR, constructions and most recently media and marketing. 

The advertising model is broken when it comes to news media. The major tech platforms, particularly Google and Facebook (AKA Alphabet and Meta) stand accused of undermining the news media publishers, with some governments intervening to support news media.

But, it is not just news media that has been impacted. Even the marketing and advertising trade media has suffered from the shift in advertising revenue to the major platforms. Some publishers have transformed their business models away from advertising to events, subscriptions, awards, events, membership fees and other paid models with mixed success.

Arvind provides an industry insider perspective on the challenges and opportunities for the trade news media industry.

 

Listener's note: Since the publication of this podcast, Michael Lynch, Publisher of Campaign Brief, has reached out to inform us that the outlet has now ended its "pay to play" policies, which saw the publisher require agencies/media owners seeking to have their media release published on the site to sign up for advertising packages of between $750-$2000 (or $550 if you wanted a one-off news story that would lead that day's CB Daily Bulletin). The change (which, to our knowledge, was not publicly announced at the time) coincided with Campaign Brief switching off its anonymous comment thread, following massive pressure from the creative agencies who made the difficult decision to boycott the publication. TrinityP3's position on play-to-play remains that all trade publishers should disclose their commercial arrangements in line with AANA regulations.

Rich Curtis is the CEO of FutureBrand Australia and discusses the complexities and challenges faced by brand leaders worldwide during the past decade based on the findings of the latest FutureBrand Index.

The FutureBrand Index is ten years old this year and rather than looking at the year on year trends, they have taken a widescreen view of a decade in brand.
