WHO:        

Jennifer Pelino, SVP, Media Center of Excellence, IRI®
Duncan McCall, CEO and Co-Founder, PlaceIQ
                            
WHAT:       

On Thursday, Sept. 13, IRI’s Jennifer Pelino and PlaceIQ’s Duncan McCall will present a session on “Location and CPG: Turning Real-World Insights into Sales” at Local Search Association’s 2018 Place Conference in New York City. The presentation will demonstrate how a leading adult beverage company used location history and consumer purchase data to determine the impact of major event sponsorships on in-store product sales.
         
WHY:         

It has been a longtime challenge for marketers to measure out- of-home campaigns and the path to purchase for CPG brands because the tools to link visitation to offline sales simply did not exist. Complete with compelling insights into pre- and post-purchase consumer behavior, this session will demonstrate the capabilities of groundbreaking solutions that can measure the value of sponsorships and out-of-home advertising efforts at the household level, so marketing teams can arm themselves with the tools to plan the most effective placements.

WHEN:      

Thursday, Sept. 13, 2018; 9:25–9:45 a.m. EDT

WHERE:     

2018 Place Conference New York
Grand Hyatt New York
109 E. 42nd St.
New York, NY 10017
