Redefining the Marketing Funnel: From Brand to Creators to Conversions
MarketerDay: The Only Marketing Event in LA Where You Get to Talk Back
Something's shifting in how we connect brands and value to consumers. Our first MarketerDay in-person event is here—this Thursday, July 31 in Venice, CA.
We're taking over The KINN and bringing together brand, creator, and community leaders who've shaped names like Meta, YouTube, Nike, and Disney. We've invited some of the sharpest minds across tech, brand, and partnerships to dig into the mechanics of marketing reinvention:
Karl Isaac – Founder, Hi It's Us
April Pesa – Head of U.S. Partnerships, Herfes
Erin Saign – Creator Partnerships, Meta
Ryan Edwards – Co-Founder and Head of Strategy, CAMINO5 (Host and Moderator)
We'll get into:
What brand means today and how to build not consumers but community
Why creators and communities are outpacing traditional media
Where brand, creators, and community are meeting in the new funnel
Perfect for marketers, founders, and anyone wearing multiple hats who values big conference insights with small group connection.
