New: visit the White House for PR insights (in Bristol)

Author: CIM COM

undefinedJBP is a politically, business and community-led communications and engagement consultancy. It was established in 1984, the year that the FTSE 100 Index started, Band Aid’s charity single was Christmas number one and the Princess of Wales gave birth to Harry. Today, JBP is one of the leading strategic communications consultancies in the UK.

Regional Managing Director, Chris Lawrance is opening the doors to ‘The White House’ on Whiteladies Road in Bristol to CIM members on Thursday 7 June, to host an informed debate amongst senior marketers on the convergence of PR and marketing disciplines with the rise of social media and influencer marketing for example. Chris will lead a discussion on the possible future of organisations involved in these two core communication disciplines and encourage thought and discussion from attendees.

This event is suitable for marketers with responsibility for shaping their communications strategy. Marketers who determine how their PR and communications are managed - internally or outsourced, and how their marketing teams align and work with their agencies and consultants.

Where is influencer marketing heading?

Influencers can sway public opinion towards or against a brand. Small wonder that brands actively engage with social media influencers and other opinion leaders when it comes to new product launches for example. Dominique Jackson looks at the trends impacting influencer marketing this year and highlights useful tools for managing activity.
