The Mastermind Session is a unique opportunity to drive the conversation.

These sessions were extremely powerful last year, allowing discussions around everything digital marketing and advertising related and finding answers that were crowd sourced by the group based on experience and tried and true methodology. Whether you want to learn more about social advertising, paid search, VLA’s, connected TV, or anything else in the digital space, this is the place to learn.
