Sovereign by Design: How the AAO Community is Taking Marketing Back
Marketing spent twenty years inside systems it had to trust blindly.
Every environment set its own rules for what counted — what a good audience was, what an impression was worth, what success looked like. Your own definitions, values, and standards stopped at the edge of each one. And every new surface — retail media, CTV, now agents — started you over instead of building on what you already knew.
In 30 minutes we'll trace the shift to a system marketers can read, shape, and control. We'll run a live agent-to-agent buy on stage — the agents execute, the humans stay accountable — then hear from a brand, a publisher, and an agency on what they used to trust blindly, what they built instead, and what broke along the way.
No decks, no panel, no polished case studies — just the people doing the work, including the mistakes. Come with questions; there's time to ask them.
