As you swing through Starbucks this morning, consider its new regional marketing leadership strategy to help elevate the brand, part of the Triple Shot with Two Pumps Reinvention initiative. Our research from a few years ago showed leaders are pushing decision-making authority to people at the “edges,” relying on highly networked teams to act with speed and agility. With agility at the heart of my own personal marketing approach, I applaud the shift. #agilemarketing

It was announced this week that Starbucks is dropping their "CMO" role. In an interesting development, Starbucks has decided to restructure their marketing department in a significant way as a part of a larger "transformation" process they are pursuing. But, did you know it's becoming more and more common for organizations to be doing away with the "CMO" role and opting instead for more functional specific roles that tie more directly into the grander business operations? This is without a doubt a notable shift happening in our industry, and I hope it's for the better of marketing departments/teams worldwide. If you've ever worked client-side you know how common it is for the marketing departments to be siloed, and the best marketing leaders are the ones that fight to break these silos. Hopefully, with this breakdown of "typical" marketing leadership roles/titles it won't mean a de-prioritization of marketing leaders at the executive level but rather room for more. #CMO #marketing #marketingexpert #executive #starbucks

Over the weekend, I came across an awesome image of a Pepsi can with a Coca-Cola cape. It got me thinking about perspective and how we can control our minds to flip a negative situation into an optimistic opportunity. In our fast-paced work environment, challenges are inevitable. But what if we approached these challenges with the mindset of turning them into opportunities? Just like the Pepsi can wearing a Coca-Cola cape, we can choose to see the potential for greatness in every obstacle we face. Let's embrace optimism and creativity in our problem-solving. By shifting our perspective, we can transform setbacks into steppingstones for success. Remember, it's all about how we choose to see things! How do you flip a negative situation into an optimistic opportunity?

🚀 Exciting moves in the beverage industry! Mark Schiller, the former CMO of Kraft Heinz, has now taken on the role of Global Chief Marketing Officer at Bacardi. 🍸 After over 5 fruitful years leading Kraft Heinz’s marketing in North America, Schiller’s leap to Bacardi marks a new chapter aimed at boosting their global marketing strategies. With a rich background that includes stints at Procter & Gamble and PepsiCo, his wealth of experience is something the spirits giant is eager to tap into. 🔄 As someone who has navigated career transitions within the marketing sphere, I find this move particularly intriguing. Transitioning between industries or even within sectors requires not only a deep understanding of market dynamics but also an adaptability to new corporate cultures and consumer bases. Mark's move comes at a time when Bacardi aims to amplify its market presence and innovate its branding strategies to stand out against competitors - a tall order and an exciting challenge. 🤔 What do you think makes a marketing leader truly effective when shifting between such major brands and industries? How important is adaptability versus industry-specific knowledge? Would love to hear your insights, especially if you’ve made similar transitions or are considering one! ➡️ #MarketingLeadership #CareerMoves #BrandStrategy #Bacardi #KraftHeinz #CMO #GlobalMarketing #BusinessStrategy #ConsumerGoods MarketingTrends

📦 It can be easy to put retail media in a box: who it benefits, who takes part, why and how. But it's out-of-the-box thinking, creative ideation and data-backed precision planning that ensure Threefold-powered Retail Media Networks, like Co-op Media Network, achieve brilliant results. As part of her presentation at PLMA - Private Label Manufacturers Association Annual Meeting & Leadership Conference, Partnership Director Amber Roberts chatted with Dean Harris, Head of Co-op Media Network, about how private-label brands have achieved great success investing with Co-op's best-in-class RMN. 🤑 While private-label sales have surged as consumers seek better value in retail, retail media offers an opportunity for private-label brands to make an impact, drive sales and grow loyalty beyond price when consumers are less concerned with economic pressures. Thanks for sharing your insights with us, as always, Dean! #privatelabel #retailmedia #CPG

📕 The 22 immutable laws of Marketing, By Al Ries & Jack Trout .. 1️⃣ The law of leadership : It's better to be the first in a category than to be the best. The idea is that being the first to market gives you a significant advantage because people often remember the pioneers and who made the first move in a category more easily than any subsequent competitors. The perception of being first creates a leadership position in the mind of the customer, which can be more valuable than having a better product. For example, Coca-Cola is remembered as the first cola drink, which helps it maintain leadership even though there are other cola brands. #Marketing #Business #Branding
