Managing Marketing

Jeremy Taylor, Managing Director and Mark Smith, Business Director of TrinityP3 UK discusses the complexities and challenges of the pitch process in the advertising industry an explore the notion that while many believe the pitch process is broken, it may simply need to evolve to better suit the modern landscape of marketing and media. 

The conversation delves into the importance of chemistry in client-agency relationships, the role of procurement, and the need for a more streamlined and engaging pitch process. Mark and Jeremy introduce the concept of a 'BetterPitch' that emphasizes fun, focus, and flexibility, aiming to foster better relationships and outcomes in the advertising world.

As an industry, we need to move away from the question that is so often asked: “What should we do instead of pitching?” Rather, the questions we should be asking are: “What is the most appropriate way to pitch?” and “How can we make the pitching process better”.

The Managing Marketing podcast is ten years old this week. In July 2015, the first episode went live, featuring a conversation between Darren Woolley and Shawn Callahan from Anecdote about the role of storytelling in advertising and marketing. 

Since then, hundreds of guests have appeared on the Managing Marketing podcast, sharing their stories in conversations with various TrinityP3 hosts. Some of these people are marketing famous, but many are telling their story on a podcast for the first time.

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Managing Marketing podcast, our main hosts come together to reminisce and share stories from their experience hosting the show, including memorable moments, technical glitches, and the best conversations.

In response to an increasingly vocal call from agencies around the world to ditch the pitch and trade media running headlines and opinion pieces claiming the pitch is broken and even dead, we launched The State of the Pitch Research in Australia in 2023.

The second round of the State of the Pitch research was run in Australia between June and December last year. The report makes interesting reading on what is going on and what is going wrong with pitching and what, if anything, is improving or getting worse.

Today, TrinityP3 consultants, Kylie Ridler-Dutton, Nathan Hodges, Nick Hand and Stephen Wright share their thoughts and insights on the State of the Pitch Australia research.
