About this Event
The Northampton Marketing Meetup is an informal, friendly place for the marketers of Northants to meet, learn, and share knowledge with one another. Come in 'listen' not 'sell' mode :)
We're heading back to the lovely Vulcan Works for this one, and we just want to get together, say hello, have a chat, and have a nice time.
Think of this as a community event, where the focus is very much on you meeting other people in a chilled out friendly space. We’ll chat over food and drink, listen to an inspirational speaker or two, chat some more, and go home buzzing with new contacts and new ideas.
Let’s have a lovely night in the company of some amazin’ people.

Speaker: Richard Boon, Co-founder of OH SIX
Title: Content That Connects. How build a cross-platform audience and turn viewers into returning fans
In this energetic session, we look to the future of brands creating superfans! Social and video content marketing is constantly evolving, with fragmentation across many platforms and the rise in viewing habits cross-device. There is opportunity for brands of all sizes to seize ownership of audiences with a strong content strategy, key partnerships and effective utilisation of talent to generate attention.
Richard will give us insights on:
- How to turn a brand into a broadcaster by utilising key formats to drive performance
- The direct marketing lessons can influence and elevate a content strategy
- How to plan efficient video production to maximise assets output, making content that connects
- What the future of sports and brand partnerships can do to lift audience growth
- What we can all do to tackle the hidden carbon footprint of content marketing
