What good is having a global conference for mobile app AdTech and MarTech leaders if you don’t use it to build community and business year-round?

What good is having a global conference for mobile app AdTech and MarTech leaders if you don’t use it to build community and business year-round?

I’ve spent the greater part of this year reaching out to community members and noticed how many people are advisors, consultants and fractional CMOs. That’s why MAU is launching the MAU Advisor + Consultant Directory…. for free so sign up here.

The community is full of experts who are available to provide their insights on a variety of topics (see the full list at the bottom of the newsletter). Our team wants to ensure that MAU is the premier destination for discovery.

I’ve tried my best to dig through LinkedIn and tag everyone in my network who mentions they are advisors in some capacity. Please feel free to share this with your own friends and peers who would like to be on the list.

In no particular order, here's who I see in my own network who may wish to be added to the MAU Advisor + Consultant Directory by completing the form.

Housekeeping

MAU will do a call for speakers and sessions for 2025 by the end of November. If you haven’t applied in the past, now’s the time. We are always looking for leaders as well as up and comers to share their success stories from large to small brands. Make sure you on our email list so you don’t miss the announcement.

 

Roundup

Each month I’ll do a roundup of key trends we’re seeing on our LinkedIn page feed.

  • Holiday Marketing season is here: It’s not only time to think about a speaking session at MAU, but it’s also officially holiday marketing season. It’s the most wonderful time of the year for marketers looking to gain new customers, build loyalty, and drive revenue. Maybe you’re a little too late for a PSL campaign, but if you haven’t wrapped up your holiday campaign plans, now is the time.
  • Content and AI: When MAU tested Google NotebookLM’s Audio Overview, let’s just say it was a jaw dropping experience. We loaded 3 web pages (Why Attend, Agenda-at-a-Glance, and Curated Programs). In under 4 minutes, it generated a 9-minute AI “interview” between two “voices” speaking quite believably, and quite well-informed, about what’s new in 2025 and how amazing the event is. AI continues to drive conversations. No surprises there. One of the biggest conversations for marketers continues to be around ethics because it continues to get even more interesting, amazing, and sometimes scary out there.
  • Creative!!!!! Goodbye obsession with privacy, hello obsession with creative. This ties back to a lot of the social chatter around holiday marketing, but we’re seeing a lot of posts from influencers and solution providers about the need for best-in-class creative to make your app stand out.
  • And last but not least, this past month we were proud to support #TechDayinPink, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Hispanic Heritage month, and showcase apps like @salvationarmy, @gofundme, @americanredcross and @pubsafe; all providing hurricane relief resources. I’m a big advocate of #TechforGood and equality.
