The Winchester Marketing Meetup is an informal, friendly place for the marketers of Winchester to meet, learn, and share knowledge with one another. Come in ‘listen’ not ‘sell’ mode 🙂
We’ll be back at the lovely Pump House Winchester for this one, 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: Emily Monsell-Holden, CoFounder at The Impact Apothecary
Topic: The biggest leaver most marketers aren’t pulling
Most marketing teams are fighting a losing battle. They’re pouring resource into acquisition while the brand experience quietly undermines everything they’re building.
In this talk, Emily shares what happens when you take brand strategy out of the marketing silo and into every corner of an organisation’s culture, from finance teams to customer service – and everything in between. Because when everyone understands how the brand relates to their role, that’s when the marketing results you’ve worked hard to deliver really start to fly.
Your speaker!

The result was a more cohesive culture and improved customer retention. She now helps other businesses do the same, mentoring marketing managers and advising founders through The Impact Apothecary and May Contain Nuts.

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!
