A Recap of Our Peer Marketers Breakfast

This morning we had the pleasure of hosting our first-ever Setup Marketers Breakfast, and it was a huge success! Senior-level marketers hailing from companies like Coca-Cola, Turner Broadcasting, IHG, and Premium Franchise Brands joined us for a delicious breakfast at Empire State South to network and discuss their unique marketing challenges.

The marketing leaders most appreciated having a safe environment to connect freely with no hidden agenda or sales pitch.

“It’s great to be able to network with peers in a no-pressure environment,” said Jeff Hanson, VP of eCommerce at Floor and Decor. We agree that while it’s great to connect with agencies or partners, an exclusive event with your peers can be quite refreshing.

Each attendee completed a survey at the end of our networking breakfast, and rated our event an average of 9.4 out of 10! When asked how likely they would be to recommend another Setup event to a friend, the average rating was 9.6. We’ll take it!

We plan to incorporate a more fixed agenda with set discussion topics next time, and maybe  arrange for an afternoon or evening event. This smart, dynamic group has inspired us to organize more similar gatherings, so keep an eye out for future Setup events!
