PROGRAMS

Deanie Elsner brings wisdom borne of decades of experience in the consumer products industry and the clarity of one of America’s most skilled marketing experts. Elsner has put her marketing skills to work, time and again, in service of many of the country’s most prominent brands, and the lessons she has taken from this experience are distilled into easy-to-follow, clearly presented commentary on the challenges contemporary marketers face and solutions to those challenges.

Elsner speaks to the power of data in driving contemporary decision-making. In our technologically integrated world it is more vital than ever that marketers keep abreast of trends and keep a wary eye on consumer networks. Today, consumers are driving transformation in all sectors of the marketplace; understanding the implications of this truth is vital for marketing success, and Elsner’s straightforward analysis helps her audiences recognize how they must respond to this brave new world of business.

Even in a climate of such tremendous change, not all of marketing’s traditional tenets have become obsolete. Elsner provides astute insight into which tools remain relevant in today’s marketplace – and which assumptions need to be tossed. (Or perhaps recycled, given contemporary consumer demand for sustainability!) Elsner’s audiences leave equipped to put her readily translatable advice into action.
