Given the industry is increasing so rapidly, it felt right to launch a brand that would cater to this growing community.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What will PMW bring to the marketing and communications industry that\u2019s different from sister Haymarket marcomms outlets Campaign and PRWeek?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nPMW will focus purely on performance marketing &#8211; which is basically measurable, digital marketing that is results-based. PRWeek focuses on PR obviously, but there are overlaps in content &#8211; particularly around social media and influencer marketing &#8211; while Campaign has a greater focus on Brand. Now most performance marketers agree that brand and performance shouldn&#8217;t be siloed, and so neither will our titles, but PMW will very much stand on its own two feet and has very healthy ambitions to be its own global voice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-135486\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Calum-Di-Lieto-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"Calum Di Lieto\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Calum-Di-Lieto-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Calum-Di-Lieto.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What kind of stories\/contributions will you be interested in for PMW?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nCase studies are always great, data-led reports and surveys add lots of value and of course thought-provoking opinion pieces\/interviews are always a great way to engage the audience.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What are the main challenges and opportunities for the marketing industry this year, in your opinion?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nThe death of the third-party cookie and the industry&#8217;s battle between privacy and personalisation. I think it will be a very interesting time to see how agencies and brands adapt and evolve.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">How would you describe the relationship between journalism and PR\/marketing in 2021?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nWhen journalists and PRs work together well it can be almost like an extension of the team, and in a time when networking and getting out into the industry has been near impossible, having the eyes and ears of PRs has been really helpful.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What extra insight has working on PMW given you into the way PRs\/marketers and comms pros work?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nPMW has really opened my eyes to just how targeted PR\/marketing can be and how sophisticated measurement of campaigns can be. We live in a world of 0s and 1s, it&#8217;s just about how you extract meaningful insights from the binary.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What are some recent examples of really good marketing campaigns, in your view?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nI think it&#8217;s about those that have embraced new channels such as TikTok. It&#8217;s always brave to be one of the first to invest in newer platforms, especially when the content is structured differently and you can&#8217;t just copy and paste from a more established social network. I&#8217;ve also been impressed with the number of SMEs using social media to create double, or triple, digit growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What work are you most proud of in your career?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;m always most proud of my most recent project, and so it would be successfully launching PMW. It was no easy feat to launch a global brand during a global pandemic, but we&#8217;ve already seen some incredible results and just looking at the site fills me with pride.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More information on Performance Marketing World can be found on <a href=\"https:\/\/performancemarketingworld.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the website<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for more best practice and news on marketing, PR and comms?
