Why choose MPG for Advocacy & Referral Marketing?

  • Advocacy marketing is one of the most cost effective ways to attract new event attendees. Your speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and repeat customers are already brand loyalists who understand and are bought into your value proposition.
  • With so much noise and competition, trust is more important than ever and potential customers are more likely to trust recommendations from their peers. Your customers will have dozens of industry contacts in their network so identifying and engaging with your most loyal customers, and making it easy and attractive for them to advocate for your conference or exhibition should be an essential part of your marketing strategy.
  • Team MPG can help you rapidly and efficiently tap into your valuable marketing resource of brand advocates to drive long term, sustainable growth.
