For the LOVE of Marketing: ADMA's Advisory Committee reveal their Passion for the Industry
Marketing is an ever-expanding field that encourages experimentation, innovation and creativity. It’s no wonder so many in our industry fall in love with what they do!
In the month of Valentines, we asked members of the ADMA Advisory Committee why they LOVE marketing. Here’s what they had to say…
Mim Haysom - Suncorp Group’s Executive General Manager, Brand & Marketing, and CMO50’s #1 CMO of 2022 - loves the experimental artistry that marketers can express and that the field demands. She revealed that “our constantly changing and dynamic market context means that to be successful, we have to use innovation and creativity to solve different business and customer challenges every day.”
Additionally, Commonwealth Bank Australia’s Chief Marketing OfficerJo Boundy loves marketing’s need for us to combine the creativity with data-led insights and rigorous logic. She describes her work as “the balance of the left and right brain” and “art vs science” which come together to form “the perfect relationship.”
Trisca Scott-Branagan - Chief Marketing Officer, Australian Business Growth Fund - is similarly passionate about this balance. “The variety” that comes with marketing, she says, provides “the opportunity to be creative one moment, and deeply analytical the next.”
ADMA’s CEO Andrea Martens touched on the variety that not only comes with the craft, but the plethora of interests and businesses marketers can work with. She believes that marketing is “a career where you work in any industry - be it fashion, cars, finance etc. You can follow your passion whatever that may be, as every industry relies on marketing.
hiPages Group’s Chief Customer Officer Stuart Tucker outlined the journey that marketing can take us on as the reason he loves this field of work; the process of “turning a data point into an insight, an insight into an idea, an idea into a program, a program into a customer action, and an action into revenue growth.
Finally, Mel Hopkins – Vice President, Marketing, Optus and CMO50’s #4 CMO of 2022 - cuts to the heart of marketing’s impact on the world, stating that “without it, there is no commerce.” She loves the fact that it’s marketers who “prime the sales, business growth and the economy.”
