Leveraging Contractors in a Down Economy – Lessons from CMOs
Leslie Kesserling, Founder at KessComm Cyber PR; Melissa Goldberger, CMO at OX Security; Anna Tutt, CMO at Oort; and Tyler Shields, VP Product Marketing at Traceable.
In a down economy where every penny counts, CMOs are asked to do more with less while growing their programs and keeping pace in a fiercely competitive market. Often, this means bringing on individual or agency contractors to augment internal staff or fill the gaps when there are layoffs or hiring freezes. This moderated panel discussion with top cyber CMOs will share real-world challenges, lessons, and advice on the art of building your team leveraging contractors.
This panel will share which marketing programs are the best fit for leveraging contractors, what to look for in contractor partnerships, and how to work with contractors as part of the team to get the best results.
