Are you ready to re-imagine the future of marketing?
For 75 years, marketing operated on the simple idea that: Brand = Promise + Experience.
Today it is:
Brand = Experience STORY
While the advent of social media has shattered one-way interruptions of promise-making in favor of co-created storytelling, this focused concentration on storytelling is harming our brands. The rapidly changing, post-digital, network–based world requires a NEW SET of PARADIGMS FOR the 21st Century Marketer.
According to award-winning CMO and current CEO of the American Marketing Association Russ Klein , “Experience design is the next frontier for all enterprises and brands.” Without intentional experience design, a brand is at high risk of losing both its clarity and meaning, two essential predicates for brand building.
Russ Klein’s new and patented construct, Brand = Experience STORY means a brand can be built on experience design alone and can be strengthened by effective storytelling. Without intentional and positive experience design, a brand cannot compete on storytelling alone.
Participants who join us on May 9th will discover:
• Why chasing so-called brand loyalty is no longer the end game for marketers
• The importance of reliability and usefulness in earning customer trust
• How to become “insight-prone” and how storytelling figures into brand-building and experience design.
• What world-class experience design looks like
• How and where to start the process for building an MLE (Minimum Loveable Experience)
• Ways to measure success
• Ingredients for becoming a 21st Century Leader
Do not miss out on this opportunity to receive in person training with Russ Klein, one of the most distinguished, awarded and recognized marketers in our time.

It’s not every day that a company buys the naming rights to a major sports venue. It’s an opportunity that comes along maybe once a decade.
In this presentation, Carol Yochem, President-Middle Tennessee Region for First Tennessee Bank, will share why the bank decided to buy the naming rights to First Tennessee Park, what that decision has meant to the bank in terms of brand awareness and community relations, how this opportunity was a highly aligned fit for First Tennessee and how the bank made the most of the naming decision through coordinated marketing, community relations and employee engagement.
The largest bank based in Tennessee, First Tennessee Bank is #1 in market share in every major market in the state except Nashville. Carol Yochem was named President – Middle Tennessee of First Tennessee Bank four years ago with a mandate to double the size of the bank in this market within five years. Increasing brand awareness was a part of the success equation.
She and her team did it in four years. Nashville has become the model for how First Tennessee grows market share in cities where it is not already the leader.
A lot went into achieving this success, but when it came to raising awareness of the First Tennessee brand in Nashville and Middle Tennessee, nothing came close to the decision to purchase the naming rights to the new home of the Nashville Sounds – First Tennessee Park – a decision that was made shortly after Carol was named president of this market.
In her presentation, Carol will share:
• The rationale behind purchasing the naming rights to First Tennessee Park.
• The many ways in which this decision has closely connected First Tennessee to the Nashville and Middle Tennessee community.
• How First Tennessee Park has bolstered the bank’s overall brand in this market.
• Why this opportunity was practically tailormade for First Tennessee – and why taking advantage of it might not have made sense for other companies.
• How First Tennessee activated its naming rights through using First Tennessee Park’s assets, the media, employee engagement, community relations, customer communications and charitable partnerships.
• What’s on tap, marketing-wise, for the fifth season of First Tennessee Park that opens April 4th.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to get an inside look at an immensely powerful marketing tool that most marketing professionals can only dream about: putting your organization’s brand on a major sports venue.
SPEAKER:
Carol Yochem is President of First Tennessee Bank in Middle Tennessee and has more than 30 years of banking experience. She oversees a combined loan & deposit portfolio of more than $9 billion and is proud to lead a team of nearly 600 employees who, through their hard work and commitment, have doubled the size of the bank in this region in the last 4 years.
First Tennessee’s success in Middle Tennessee under Carol’s leadership is an example of the “growth” theme that has defined her career. Prior to coming to Nashville to accept her current position with First Tennessee, she was executive vice president and head of the wealth management business line for First-Citizens Bank & Trust in Raleigh, NC. Prior to that Carol spent 18 years at SunTrust Bank leading commercial, corporate, and private client divisions in both Memphis and Nashville. She was integral to the start and growth of SunTrust’s first Memphis office growing it from scratch to over $600M.
She began her career with the same bank she helps lead today, joining First Tennessee’s management training program at its headquarters in Memphis soon after graduating from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The excellent training program, which rotated her through many departments in the bank, was the foundation for a career working with teams who build better banks.
Carol serves on a number of boards or committees where she is significantly engaged and making contributions benefiting the Middle Tennessee community. She is board chair of the Nashville Downtown Partnership, a member of the Nashville Chamber of Commerce board of directors and a leadership cabinet member of Partnership 2020, a member of YMCA of Middle Tennessee board of directors, an Andrew Jackson Foundation Board Trustee, alumnae of Leadership Nashville, and past Cheekwood Board Trustee.
