‘CRM is a channel, you can’t do cool interactive stuff in emails, CRM is boring and should be thought about at the end of the process’. Wrong, wrong and wrong. Rob Pellow has been working in CRM for over 10 years and, like most people who end up in that world, he didn’t mean to. However, the amount of opportunity, genuine customer connection and provable, unrivalled ROI that it produces leaves him excited every day.
Join Rob as he helps us understand how and where CRM fits into a marketing stack, what is and isn’t the role of email, and what is and isn’t possible.
This session is open to all but is particularly relevant for client-side people responsible for or interested in CRM, teams that work in CRM but not as a main role, people interested in how to bring brands to life in less commonly discussed channels and people that would like to know how to power up their CRM!

These sessions take place every other Friday morning from 8.30-9am, for the BCI community to share their pearls of wisdom with one another. The half hour webinars will involve a 15 minute presentation followed by a 10 minute facilitated Q&A, with introductions from the BCI team.
Our community is full of such amazing talent so we’re giving members the stage to talk about things that excite them so they can inspire their peers. The sessions will be a mix of expert tips and tricks and case studies – the perfect opportunity to learn something new before the week is out.
Our usual online format is an interactive ‘meeting’ but for this series we’re running webinars so that it’s easy to listen in while prepping for the day ahead or while having your breakfast! Cameras and mics will be off but you can ask your questions through the chat box or submit them beforehand.
Please get in touch with Sian if you’re interested in speaking at a future session.
The Wake Up Call sessions are exclusively for BCI members – register your free place below!

Wake Up Call: Why a brand is more than just a logo

BCI Webinar
It’s a common misconception that ‘brand’ refers to a logo, or at most, a logo and a colour palette.
