The marketing playbook is being rewritten. From AI-generated noise and fractured customer journeys to privacy-first measurement and changing discovery habits, the challenges facing brands heading into 2027 are unlike anything we’ve seen before. Prolific North Live brings together the strategists, innovators, and operators helping businesses cut through the chaos and find what actually works.
1. Find out which marketing principles won’t survive 2027
For years, marketers have relied on familiar rules but consumer behaviour is shifting fast.
On the Strategy Spotlight stage, speakers will challenge the conventional wisdom that’s shaping budgets, campaigns and boardroom decisions. Expect candid discussions on what’s becoming obsolete, what’s evolving, and what forward-thinking brands are doing differently.
2. Learn how to stand out in a world flooded with AI content
Audiences are increasingly exposed to endless streams of AI content, automated messaging and algorithmically generated marketing. The challenge is no longer simply creating more content but creating work that people actually remember.
Sessions on storytelling and brand building will explore how marketers can develop distinctive narratives, sharper creative strategies and stronger emotional connections that cut through the noise.
Whether you’re managing a brand, an agency team or a content function, you’ll leave with fresh thinking on how to create marketing that resonates in an increasingly crowded landscape.
3. Get practical frameworks for proving marketing ROI
As privacy regulations tighten and tracking becomes more complex, proving marketing effectiveness has become one of the biggest pressures facing teams.
Prolific North Live will tackle this head-on with sessions focused on privacy-first measurement, attribution and ROI frameworks that stand up to scrutiny.
Rather than abstract theory, expect practical approaches, tactical templates and strategic playbooks that can be adapted for in-house teams, agencies and ecommerce businesses alike.
4. Understand the new customer journey before your competitors do
Search, social, marketplaces, creators, communities, retail media and AI assistants mean customer discovery is no longer happening in one predictable place.
The Trendsetters Stage will explore the “death of the organic click”, fractured discovery and the changing ecommerce journey, helping brands understand where attention is moving and how to adapt their channel strategy.
You’ll also hear discussions around the role of emerging channels, changing media mixes and how in-house teams are evolving to meet new expectations.
5. Hear from the marketers shaping what’s next
Prolific North Live brings together leading thinkers, challenger brands, agencies and technology partners who are already navigating the challenges marketers will face in 2027.
Alongside keynote sessions, expect honest conversations, real-world case studies and practical examples of campaigns that delivered measurable results. Whether you’re responsible for brand strategy, growth, ecommerce, social media or innovation, you’ll gain insights from people who are testing new ideas and achieving impressive outcomes.
Ready for 2027?
The pace of change in marketing isn’t slowing down. Prolific North Live is designed to help marketers, agencies, ecommerce teams and growth leaders make sense of what’s changing and what to do about it.
