Filling the Shopping Center Talent Gap

Brought to you by

What happens when your Marketing Director leaves? Or your shopping center doesn’t have the budget for one?

A marketing director plays an integral role within a shopping center’s asset team. Responsible for driving visitor traffic, supporting retailer sales, and the overall visibility and market positioning of the property, marketing efforts greatly contribute to the overall success of any property. However, there are occasions, both temporary and permanent, when having a property marketing director just isn’t possible or practical. These can include:

    • Limited property budgets
    • Staff turnover
    • Extended illness
    • Sabbatical/maternity Leave
    • Local labor pool limitations
    • Lack of skills or industry knowledge
    • Resource is needed NOW!
