If you missed our recent Beauty Insider Series event you really missed a lot of actionable information. The kind of info you can use in reports, presentations. Not to rub salt in the wound, event speaker Maxwell Luthy of TrendWatching has agreed to share his trend report only with event attendees. Take a look at a commercial he spotted that was created by Unilever’s Axe brand. I really like it—it’s smart, modern and worth watching.

Those attending our upcoming The NPD Group’s 2015 Year in Review on Feb 3 will receive a take home report by NPD. The only other way you get to see this info is if your company is a subscriber. And even if they are, you still might never get to see it. The bottom line? The information you get at this and other CEW events just makes you look smarter.
