Marc Davison
Out Of The Cockpit And Into The Cabin:
Real Estate Marketing And Communications Done Right
Plaza Room: 9:00 to 10:30

Speaker: Marc Davison, Partner with 1000Watt Consulting
You’re inside the cockpit, on autopilot. Doing the same things, time after time, with a narrow range of vision. You’re enclosed. Shut off from the outside world, and, most importantly, your customers. This presentation will usher you into the cabin of new thinking. It’s where your customer resides. It’s where new ideas are flourishing and old ideas no longer work. Learn how brands like Apple, Jet Blue, W Hotels and HGTV are creating products and services and the channels they use to reach the new consumer who no longer responds to conventional marketing and advertising. This presentation exposes the real estate audience to what doesn’t work anymore and what does. Bring a flight bag. You’ll need them to store all the takeaways.
