TMM IRL: Barcelona. How to make media work for your marketing department

The Marketing Meetup is a global community for marketers, and the marketing-curious. This is your space to keep up to date and meet like minds, in an environment that prioritises kindness and learning you can actually put into action. We're heading to the lovely La Fabrica &Co for this event, where the vibes are chill and friendly, and you’ll be welcomed in with big smiles and cheerful chat 🙂 Come say hello, enjoy some pizza, listen to a speaker or two to get the ideas flowing, and savour the time to have real conversations with real humans. No selling or networking bingo, just good people being good people. This is the kind of night where you walk home at the end thinking, "I’m not the only one, after all." Let’s have a fab night with some fab people. You’re invited, of course. Speaker: Cathy White, Founder & CEO of CEW Communications Topic: How to make media work for your marketing department After 15+ years helping companies shape stories that actually get picked up, Cathy White breaks down how to avoid the common pitfalls, what actually makes a journalist say yes — and, more importantly, how to use that to get media working for your marketing department, not against it. You’ll learn: •⁠ ⁠⁠why your big news might not be news and what journalists really care about •⁠ ⁠⁠how to identify the stories worth telling and shape them so they cut through •⁠ ⁠⁠what a day looks like for media and how to make their life easy, so you get covered Here's how the evening unfolds: 6:30 pm Doors open: drinks, smiles, warm welcomes, and that lovely buzz of people arriving 7:00 pm A hello from us, then over to our speaker 7:45 pm Talks done, pizzas, plenty of time for open conversation and zero pressure networking 8:30 pm Home time, you leave with new connections, fresh ideas, and a smile on your face :) A heartfelt thank you to our brilliant supporters.
