Local Influence: Building Brands Through Trust, Culture, and Connection

In a media landscape defined by fragmentation, fast-moving trends, and shrinking attention spans, one thing still hits: relevance.

Join AAF Atlanta and AJC Ads (powered by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution) for a conversation on the evolving power of local advertising—and what it really takes to connect with Atlanta audiences in meaningful ways.

From trusted journalism and owned-and-operated media channels to cultural relevance and audience behavior, this panel explores how brands can build stronger connections by showing up where attention—and trust—already live.

Whether you’re in media, strategy, creative, brand marketing, or communications, you’ll walk away with practical insight on how local platforms can drive real impact in a crowded market.

Lunch will be provided.

Thank you to our host and sponsor AJC Ads!
