Queenstown Lakes Marketers!

Join us for our first-ever event.

We’re excited to invite you to the first-ever Queenstown Lakes Marketers event!

Join us on Thursday, 24th October, as we welcome John Miles, CEO of the Marketing Association, for an exclusive presentation celebrating 50 years of iconic Kiwi advertising campaigns.

In this fun and insightful session, John will take us through a journey of creativity, highlighting the seven key traits that define the very best ads. From nostalgic treasures to timeless brilliance, discover the greatest campaigns that have shaped New Zealand’s advertising history. John will also reveal which ad has been crowned the ultimate Kiwi campaign of the last 50 years!

This is your chance to:

  • Connect with fellow marketers in the Queenstown Lakes District
  • Learn from one of the most experienced leaders in New Zealand marketing

 

This networking event has been organised by volunteers (and fellow marketers) in the Marketing Association's new Queenstown Lakes Marketers' Group. 


A special thank you to Destination Queenstown for hosting this event.
