Join us for our monthly Power Hours designed to keep you up-to-date with marketing trends from some of Central Texas' thought leaders in the marketing industry.
In marketing, nothing ever goes according to plan—especially, when it comes to events. When things go wrong, that's when the best marketing professionals get to work and navigate those uncomfortable waters. How we respond to a difficult situation will often determine our brand's reputation more than the actual disaster itself.
In the spirit of spooky season, AMA Austin is bringing together a group of field marketing experts for a light-hearted discussion of event-related marketing challenges and ways to overcome those obstacles when terror strikes your organization.
Your AMA Hosts will be dressed up in costume. — Join us, if you dare! 👻
