Economic uncertainty bubbles up in conversations on first day of Possible
Briefly

Executives at the Possible conference in Miami signal that economic conditions are notoriously unpredictable. While marketers are hesitating rather than cutting budgets, their response to current challenges varies. In Latin America, leaders show resilience amidst instability, while Canada is seeing a surge of nationalism. Yet, public concern exists around some marketers who typically use economic downturns to assert dominance but are currently remaining passive. Emphasis on marketing education is spotlighted, as stated by Greg Stuart, with a call for more professional credentialing in marketing roles.
"Some speakers noted that marketers are still holding budgets steady, waiting to see how economic conditions evolve, reflecting a cautious yet hopeful stance in this volatility."
"In a distinct contrast to past behaviors in similar economic climates, major marketers seem hesitant to capitalize on uncertainty, potentially missing out on the chance to secure market advantage."
