The Southampton Marketing Meetup is an informal, friendly place for the marketers of Southampton to meet, learn, and share knowledge with one another. Come in 'listen' not 'sell' mode 🙂
We'll be meeting back at the awesome Clockwise for this event, and we just want to get together, say hello, have a chat, and have a nice time.
Think of this as a community event, where the focus is very much on you meeting other people in a chilled out friendly space. We’ll chat over food and drink, listen to an inspirational speaker or two, chat some more, and go home buzzing with new contacts and new ideas.
Let’s have a lovely night in the company of some amazin’ people.

Speaker: Robin Waldman, Founder and Creative Director of RCM and face behind @ourhampshireandbeyond
Topic: An insider's look at influencer marketing
Robin is the founder and creative director of RCM. Founded in 2015, they are a Hampshire-based video production company working with national and global brands and organisations on their visual content and making it easy for them to achieve important things with video.
In 2021, he also launched a travel channel on social media called @ourhampshireandbeyond, which has since amassed a loyal following of over 160,000 followers across social media, sharing authentic content on achievable adventures in Hampshire and beyond for families and all who essentially are 'influenced ' to visit new places, support local businesses and get out and explore.
Robin will be sharing an insider's look at the world of influencer marketing, including the benefits for marketers and businesses, as well as some success stories. As well as touching on how marketers can successfully utilise both professional content alongside UGC content.

And finally...
This is a donation ticketed event. Entry price is yours to choose, from £3 to £30 (the average community member chooses to spend £8.79 🙂
We of course understand that these are tough times, so if you are experiencing financial hardship and cannot afford the minimum donation amount, please reach out to el@themarketingmeetup.com and we’ll find a ticket for you (provided capacity hasn't already been reached!) 🙂
Please let your marketing friends and colleagues know about this group too, we hope to build it into a great resource for the community over the coming months and years. Attendance will be taken at this event. If you sign up but don’t show up, this has a knock on effect on event arrangements. If it happens 3 times, you’re outta here! This is simply a measure to allow appropriate respect to the organisers, speakers, sponsors, and your fellow community members 🙂

See you there!
