Pitching a Session
Attendees come to the Digital non-conference to learn about the latest and greatest in digital marketing. As such, great speakers and strong content are key. Speakers are selected based on their knowledge of the given subject area. The best sessions include case studies or real examples of digital marketing in action.
Do not pitch your company or product in your session. The best speakers gain credibility from their great content. Our participants are attending your session to learn about digital marketing – not your company.
There are 4 types of sessions you can pitch:
Panels – A panel includes a group of 3 – 4 panelists to share insights and experiences on a given topic. The best panels include people with differing points of view on the same topic.
Panel Moderators – are always in demand and represent an equally valuable opportunity for industry leaders to participate in the panel format. Panel discussions involve active pre-production, solicitation of speakers, organization and skill. The panel sessions themselves are about one hour in length, which includes audience Q & A opportunities.
Workshops – are highly focused, interactive learning environments that are typically led by 1 – 2 facilitators. Workshops should cover a specific subject area and provide actionable information to participants.
Case Studies – specifically share the situation, action and result of an innovative campaign. The best case studies include panelists from more than one side of the project (ie. client and agency) and share actionable results with the audience.
