Translating Trends: Turning Trends from Concept Into Social Media Content
Sunday, July 16 • 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Today, social media platforms and trendy topics seem to flourish in the blink of an eye – and vanish just as quickly. In this fast-paced landscape, we reveal top garden trends for 2023, and how to leverage them into viral social content. This panel discussion offers real world advice and lessons learned for creating timely, relevant social content that galvanizes consumers. With many companies spending valuable time and staffing on time-consuming social content creation, our panelists are here to help your team work smarter – not harder – to create dynamic social media content that moves your brand forward.

Purpose-Powered Marketing
Monday, July 17 • 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM
What’s the difference between marketing that sparks attention season after season… and lackluster campaigns that fail to take flight? It’s not about budget or manpower: great marketing campaigns are powered by purpose. This session is designed to help you uncover your brand’s identity, weave it into a cohesive company culture, and communicate your story with audiences eager to discover who you are. A dynamic panel consisting of a grower, trade brand, and IGC retailer will help you learn to: 1) Crystalize your brand identity, 2) Translate your identity into purpose, values, and company culture, 3) Market your identity and purpose to the audiences that matter most. Moderated by 30-year industry marketing leader Garden Media Group, our panelists share an inside look at how they dug deep to discover their brand identity, and the tactics they used to translate it into multi-million dollar growth and success.
