Attracting and retaining attention is a huge battle for marketers: according to Media Dynamics, people are exposed to around 362 ads per day but a mere 24% of these are viewed more than 1 second, resulting in most going unnoticed.
In a world where capturing and retaining customer attention has never been more challenging, this exclusive event gives you access to strategies that go beyond best practice. Join senior marketing professionals and learn how to turn evidence into action to transform your paid media efforts and increase your website’s conversion rate.
What you’ll learn:
- To uncover actionable insights about your audience and what resonates with them
- How to apply these insights to optimise your paid media campaigns
- How to craft landing pages that utilise behavioural science principles to convert more clicks into customers

Workshop two: Attention to conversion
