Join us for the first Field Notes In Practice
The Great Convergence of UGC, Influencer, and Paid Media
For years, UGC, influencer, and paid media lived in separate lanes — different teams, different budgets, different goals. That era is over.
Today, the most effective brands are collapsing silos and building creator strategies that move fluidly across organic, paid, and performance channels. The question is no longer if these worlds converge — it’s how to do it well.
In this Field Notes: In Practice conversation with Cody Plofker, CEO from Jones Road Beauty / Host of Marketing Operators Podcast, we’ll break down what this convergence actually looks like in practice: how brands are rethinking creator briefs, paid usage, whitelisting, and measurement — and where teams are getting it wrong. Expect real examples, honest lessons, and clear frameworks you can apply immediately.
Whether you sit on brand, agency, or creator side, this session is designed to help you build smarter, more integrated programs that scale without sacrificing relationships.
