Recent Panel Discussion
One year ago we sat down with a group of marketing professionals and business owners to grapple with the challenges brought on by the pandemic, global shutdown and socio-political upheaval that ensued. Clearly it was time for Business as Un-usual.
This past June 18th AIGA Asheville brought back the same panelist to revisit, rethink and re-imagine business as usual. Together we explored how to market beyond COVID.
Panelists:
Aisha Adams – Aisha Adams Media
Catherine Campbell – Marketing Director, Wildsam Field Guides (formerly Agency Owner at Bright Planning)
Nicole Hairfield – Co-founder, Moonlight Makers
Nathan Jordan – Creative Director, Market Connections
Panel Moderator:
John Hornsby – Chief Creative Ninja, Hornsby Creative & Co-Founder, Connection Kits
This was a hybrid event with limited in-person capacity at The Foundry Hotel and also as a live webinar on Zoom.
