Alfredo goes to Brazil!
The pictures above don’t really do justice to the whole story. But I hope that they got your attention! This entry is really not about samba dancers – but samba dancers do make me smile. Actually, the picture was just a cheap way to get you to look. The truth is, I am excited about going to Brazil…but not because of the beautiful dancers. Who would not want to visit Brazil? It’s an amazing country that is full of life, music and fun. And, it’s also a country where I lived for two years when I was little, and I have fond memories of my time there. It will be fun to be back.
The actual reason for the trip is that I will be giving a presentation at “Marketing Mix” - which is the largest gathering of retailers in Brazil, and takes place in São Paulo on September 2nd and 3rd, 2008.
The theme for this year’s event is “The Consumer Transformation: Interactivity and Mobility at the Point of Purchase”. Sponsored by POPAI, the Global Association for Marketing at Retail, the event will discuss how the latest technology trends are affecting the retail industry in Brazil.
My presentation is titled “Building Brand Experiences at Retail”, and is focused on how brands and retailers can leverage branding processes from a strategic and tactical standpoint to increase the effectiveness of marketing initiatives at retail.
For more information check out our News Release, or the POPAI Brazil site.
Just for the record….(just in case) I am practicing my Samba!
