Newcastle duo look to ‘break the rules’ on eve of digital conference launch

Andrew Pickering and Peter Gartland, who together make-up Newcastle-based marketing agency Andrew and Pete, are putting the final touches on a large-scale online conference, set to run next week.

Launched to bring leading content to small businesses and entrepreneurs, thousands of people have already registered to attend Rule Breakers Online Conference which kicks off this Monday (9th May) and lasts until the 13th.

The duo have gathered together 30 leading business development and marketing speakers from all over the world, with contributors joining from as far the USA, Canada, Europe and Australia.

The conference is free to attend during the week it is running, where participants can attend from the comfort of your own home, watching the sessions online and getting involved in the online networking opportunities.

The idea behind the conference is to inspire businesses to try something different with their business.

It will be covering everything from the future of Social Media Marketing, Periscope, sales funnel building, Snapchat marketing, video marketing, how to convert more proposals, how to stand out online, content marketing and an array of other extremely useful business topics to grow your company.

“Some of the speakers have built multi-million dollar businesses by following these tactics, so they definitely know what they are talking about”, say the pair who first outlined their vision to Bdaily earlier in March this year.

Speakers include internationally renowned media names such as Kim Garst, who Forbes listed as a Top 10 Social Media Woman Influencer, as well as Michael Stelzner, founder and CEO of Social Media Examiner, founder of the Social Media Marketing Society, and author of the books Launch and Writing White Papers.

Sarah Callender, MD at Bdaily and one of the featured Rule Breaker speakers, said: “We are absolutely over the moon to play a part in such an innovative and exciting conference with Andrew and Pete.

“Bdaily itself is a disrupter in the news and media marketplace. It’s been a pleasure to be able to share our story and knowledge alongside a panel of top class speakers.

“If you’re passionate about all things content, digital and changes in the industry - then this is definitely something you won’t want to miss!”
