What does it mean to be a Chief Marketing Officer in 2023 and beyond? Today's CMOs are under more pressure than ever to demonstrate ROI, even while knowing that many aspects of brand-building are long-term efforts without immediately measurable results. It's why today's CMO's must be guided by deep human insights and understand the macro and micro influences shaping the mindsets and behaviors of our key audiences. Successful performance marketing, as an element of a broader marketing ecosystem, begins with truly understanding consumers.

Consumers have evolved — they want what they’re looking for, exactly when they’re looking for it. But marketing hasn’t caught up.
Interruption and permission-based strategies continue to serve inefficient content that fails to build long-lasting consumer connections.
Reception marketing meets consumers where they are. These strategies help marketers turn their brand assets into predictable performance channels to foster deeper emotional connections, build longer-term brand trust, and drive new, sustainable revenue.

Keally DeWitt
Vice President, Marketing & Public Policy
GAF Energy
Keally comes to solar with the conviction that carbon-neutral is the new black. She started in renewables as the Head of Marketing for the largest solar company in the Northeast before moving into marketing and public policy leadership roles at Sunrun and SunPower. As the National Organizing Director of The Alliance for Solar Choice (TASC), Fortune magazine described the netroots work she pioneered as “radically changing” political advocacy through digital technology. Prior to joining GAF Energy, she served as Head of Marketing at Mosaic. She has a BA from Brown University.
Humanizing data requires a quantitative and qualitative approach, and Keally DeWitt is an expert with both.
Having gone from a mindfulness practitioner to a clean energy activist to a data-driven communications leader at GAF Energy (a Standard Industries company), Keally helped launch the Timberline Solar roof at CES last year, which incorporates the world’s first nailable solar shingle. Because of GAF Energy’s human-centric approach, the cost of customer acquisition for Timberline Solar has been a fraction of the norm in the solar industry.
Strong results require forging relationships to learn what the consumer needs—using all forms of data (qualitative notwithstanding). After developing Timberline Solar with a collaborative, design-thinking approach, GAF Energy’s go-to-market strategy involves leveraging the roofing contractor network built by GAF (the largest roofing and waterproofing manufacturer in North America and GAF Energy’s sister company).
As VP of marketing and public policy at GAF Energy, Keally focuses on empathy. Most people want simplicity with their products; it’s our job as marketers to center the human experience as they move through their often hectic, usually complex lives. Timberline Solar largely meets that bar, for roofers who install it and for the homeowners who have it on their homes. It installs like a roof and protects like a roof, while generating clean energy. That’s it. As marketers, we must ensure our solutions do not require too much (human mental or emotional) energy, as we listen to our customers and innovate using strong emotional data.

Influencer marketing spend has risen to billions yet the industry still feels like the wild west. Marketers are trying to figure out how to source the right influencers and then manage them efficiently. CMOs are questioning the metrics being used to evaluate performance. Without proper attribution, measuring success is very difficult. Marketers need to show the right metrics to their leadership teams to justify the price of working with influencers. Come listen and learn how top marketers are dealing with the same challenges you are. Together, we might just find some innovative solutions!

Throughout history, humans have relied on conversations and interactions to foster cooperation, commerce, and relationships. With the rise of the internet, social media apps, and mobile phones, these conversations have become global, instant, and involve thousands of people simultaneously. Digital word-of-mouth has transformed the scale, immediacy, and reach of conversations, creating the largest and most pervasive global community. However, brands face challenges in this landscape, as social media and messaging platforms have become avenues for one-way message amplification, competing for attention in a sea of similarity. Additionally, social platform algorithms prioritize entertainment over social interaction, posing implications for marketers and their content strategies. To succeed, brands should shift focus from reach and attention to engagement and community building, prioritizing meaningful interactions, participation, and relationship development with their audience.

As a start, the session will detail what goes into the development of a marketing strategy and how the annual marketing plan gets created, validated, and shared with various stakeholders. While strategy is important for the business and stakeholders, execution is everything. We will explore the various components that go into execution such as team skills, marketing technology, campaign management, content development, funnel optimization, and accountability metrics. As the team executes the strategy, it’s important to have business agility instilled within the marketing function – which requires processes, tools, skills, and a culture of pivoting.
This session covers the marketing function with multiple markets, segments, and regions. This session will not be a textbook message, but rather hands-on experience of connecting strategy, execution, with business agility. Specifically, you will walk away with examples of:
