Creative Intelligence: The Next Frontier in Marketing & Advertising Performance
Date TBD

How organizations can go beyond determining whether a campaign worked to understanding why it worked.


While marketers & advertisers have mastered the science of reaching the right person at the right time, they've operated with surprisingly little visibility into what makes one creative execution outperform another. To address this gap, more and more brands are investing in Creative Intelligence to understand why customers engage with certain pieces of creative content. New research from Winterberry Group offers a comprehensive view into the evolving Creative Intelligence landscape, shedding light on how creative intelligence is being applied across the creative & campaign lifecycle, what top use cases are unlocking value today, and how organizations can begin to develop their own operational expertise in this growing field.

 

Join Adobe’s Sam Garfield, Head of Digital Strategy, Communications, Media and Travel and Zack Ackerman, Data Strategy Manager, for an illuminating conversation with Winterberry Group's CEO Michael Harrison on why creative intelligence has emerged as the next frontier in marketing and advertising performance, and how brands can measure creative quality, scale personalization, reduce production waste, and clearly quantify creative’s contribution to business outcomes. Attendees will leave with a practical understanding of how creative intelligence works, where it delivers the greatest impact across the campaign lifecycle, and concrete next steps for getting started or scaling their own creative intelligence practice.
