• Being the first marketing hire after a seed round
• Breaking into an enterprise market with a traditional/old school target audience
• Banking on virtual events
• Brand/talent partnerships
• Mixing celebrity marketing with PR
• How to make partnerships successful and always asking for more
• What to ask for in a partnership with a celebrity
