Speakers:
David Meerman Scott
David Meerman Scott spotted the real-time marketing revolution in its infancy and wrote multiple books about it including The New Rules of Marketing and PR, now in an 9th edition, with more than 500,000 copies sold in English and available in 29 languages from Albanian to Vietnamese.
Now David says the pendulum has swung too far in the direction of superficial online communications. Tech-weary and AI-wary people are hungry for true human connection. Organizations have learned to win by developing what David calls a “Fanocracy” – (the subject of his “Wall Street Journal” bestseller) – tapping into the mindset that relationships with customers are more important than the products they sell to them.
David has been a guest on over 300 podcasts(!) He is an advisor to emerging companies, serves on the HubSpot advisory board, and delivers keynotes and masterclasses around the world. He loves to surf, go on long backpacking adventures, and dance the Lindy Hop.
