Los Angeles, California – July 30, 2020 – Pop culture marketing agency Hollywood Branded recently announced the launch of the first ever Marketer’s Content Playbook Virtual Summit.  The conference is designed to provide brand marketers and agencies with the tools to create more effective and impactful marketing content, while dealing with the realities of loss of business driven by Covid-19. Admission is free to attend, with SMBs, marketers, agencies and college students and professors encouraged to participate.

This virtual event will take place from Tuesday, August 4th through Thursday August 6th, 2020 and is accessible at  https://marketerscontentplaybook.com.  

This unique format online summit with live video speaker interactive Q&A offers presentations centered around the topic of How To Do Content Marketing – Better.  The 3-day event lineup includes over 100 thought leaders from the world of brands, agencies, media, influencers and Hollywood who will provide insights to recharge brand marketers and help them better address today’s difficult marketing climate during this global pandemic, as well as how to participate in conversations during this powerful time of social reform.  Attendees will be able to build their own Content Marketing Playbook by choosing from over 50 hours of presentations, case study discussions, panels and workshops on how to create better content, generate effective advertising, and leverage pop culture partnerships. 

Each day over 30 Content Playbook sessions will be unveiled with On Demand presentations, crafted specifically for this conference and audience, made available beginning at 7 am until 5 pm pst.  Speaker Q&A sessions begin on the half hour throughout each day. The On Demand format was devised as an option to provide attendees the ability to control their day, how they consume content, and to focus on specific topics of interest regardless of time.  Networking opportunities will be provided through the all-day BYOB Coffee Talk and Playbook Endzone Happy Hour with smaller breakout sessions, and the Zen Meditation Room will provide a place of respite to process lessons learned. Special events and activities will be held at times throughout the virtual conference event, including interactive customized memes made for attendees by agency Laffly, who generates memes campaigns for celebrities, companies, and influencers. 

According to Stacy Jones, the CEO and founder of both Hollywood Branded and Marketer’s Content Playbook Virtual Summit, “This virtual summit grew into reality over the last three years from my interviewing hundreds of business and marketing thought leaders on our agency’s podcast, Marketing Mistakes (+ How To Avoid Them).  The event was built around the idea of providing marketing solutions driven by entrepreneurs and business professionals who are asking the same questions: Will my business still be here in a year? How do I safeguard my job, show I make a difference and really demonstrate my value? We’ve built a giant platform to bring together thought leaders, entrepreneurs, brand marketers and student future leaders who have personally felt the blow of Covid-19, and who have with these new marketing tools, the opportunity to drive positive impact at their own businesses and in their lives.  The goals for all summit participants is to allow each to be able to leverage this moment of time, where life is still not back to normal, to stretch themselves, to gain more knowledge, to see what updated marketing practices others are doing, and better understand the tactics that are driving sales and making other companies millions. Most importantly, we wanted to provide this event for free, so that thousands of people can benefit – to help others stay in business or keep their jobs. We also wanted to give brand marketers the tools to recover faster from the hits and help students fill in the gaps left by their current limited resources to internships. Our team spent the first 4 months of the pandemic building this super-sized conference into this life changing event, with the purpose to help ensure a true difference in attendees’ lives with the knowledge shared and learned.”
