Where does TV sit within brand marketing strategies? With Unilever, PepsiCo, ex-Kraft Heinz
L-R: Lebbon, Patilinet, Brooke, Keith
The Media Leader Podcast
Last month at the Future of TV Advertising Global event in London, three brand marketers spoke about how they view the strengths of TV, particularly as they compare to other audio-visual platforms.
Richard Brooke is the global media trading and operations director at Unilever. Sorin Patilinet is the global marketing effectiveness lead at PepsiCo. Alison Keith was until recently the head of global marketing effectiveness at Kraft Heinz and, before that, the VP of global media at Coty.
The trio sat down with event producer and The Media Leader contributor Justin Lebbon to discuss what brands want from TV and where TV sits in their marketing strategies compared to other video platforms.
Is TV still “cool”? Does it have a narrative problem with ad buyers? Is YouTube TV? Brooke, Patilinet and Keith unpacked a media channel in flux.
Brooke also discussed why Unilever moved to increase its spend on social media platforms last year – a bold move that could well have heralded in a new era of confidence for the creator economy.
