Sara Weitzel, Global Search Lead at Kimberly-Clark, will share how Kimberly-Clark is using the power of search to successfully unlock the hidden value of its brand websites.

Keynote Presentation: Measuring the Multi-Channel Plan: HP's Multi-Touch Plan Tides Ballroom
When HP launched its Instant Ink subscription plan for printer refills, it needed a media plan targeted and measured impact across all online and offline channels, from search and display to OOB (out-of-box). Last touch attribution just wouldn't do. Roland Osae-Oppong, HP’s North America Digital Marketing Lead - Consumer Products, explores how the brand is now creating both data strategies and attribution models that account for the cumulative effect of all media and move the company towards true visibility into the multi-channel consumer conversion journey.
