The locale is central: The Red Lion Pub, 2316 S Shepherd Drive, Houston, TX 77019. (713) 782-3030. Come early to avoid parking hassles - and so you can find your car afterwards.

Houston Interactive Marketing Association Presents August Luncheon
Strategies for Opening Your Brand
What to Expect:
Many of today's best brands are powered by the technologies, traits and trends of the digital channel. Old mass-marketing push tactics are being superseded by the pull of an online population prolifically creating, sharing and influencing each other. The potent pairing of digital notoriety and network effects has given rise to a new cultural authority and demanding consumer: the iCitizen.
Join futurist author Nita Rollins as she explores how radical business imperative emerges from these forces and how you and your business have to open up to consumer involvement in your brand's messages and offerings. Learn about both the risk and immense rewards of doing so, and how to set a framework to become O.P.E.N. – On-demand, Personal, Engaging and Networked.
KEY TAKE AWAYS
• Learn how to frame your brand to be O.P.E.N.
• Become engaged with the new authoritative consumer
• Understand the importance of communities and changing from push to pull marketing for a web-made world
Speaker:
Nita Rollins is a cross-disciplinary thinker, marketer and writer, whose expertise encompasses marketing strategy, film theory, fashion history and product design. She is co-author of The Open Brand: When Push Comes to Pull in a Web-Made World, co-authored with Resource Interactive president Kelly Mooney, and author of the forthcoming Cinaesthetic Wondering: The Beautiful, the Ugly, the Sublime and the Kitsch in Post- Metaphysical Film (University of California Press, 2008).
