Do You Market on Purpose?
In today’s world of bottom-line numbers and quarterly quotas, there’s little else that occupies our time. Or is there? Organizations around the world are beginning to understand a different motivator that now drives their success – purpose.

In his no-holds-barred Texas manner, Roy Spence will share the power of purpose and how he’s used it as a basis in differentiating his clients, including Whole Foods, BMW, Southwest Airlines, the American Red Cross, The Clinton Global Initiative and other organizations around the world. Spence has set his sights on helping people understand how purpose-based marketing makes a difference to the customers we serve, the people we employ, the communities in which we live and ultimately the lives that we live.

Spence’s message applies equally to solopreneurs to Fortune 50 executives. Because purpose is the ultimate brand message about the difference a company is trying to make in the world. And companies that operate and communicate on “purpose” have proven track records of out-performing and out-earning their competition.

Attendees will learn:

  • What purpose is and why it matters in today’s business world
  • Why you need to bring purpose to life in your organization
  • How to articulate purpose and share it with employees and customers
  • How to move from ideas about purpose into solutions with tangible results

What Audiences Say

“I had the opportunity to hear Roy Spence speak at the BMA national Conference this year in Chicago and he was great! Roy is a wonderful showman and story teller and he delighted the audience with ‘off the cuff’ advertising and marketing insights, political rants (which I loved) and advice to always put your customers’ needs first.

What a coup that we will have the legendary Roy Spence here in Colorado this September. He’ll leave you motivated and inspired - don’t miss it!”
