Welcome to Marketing Mastered: the home for Derby’s marketing community to meet, learn and level up!

For our final event of 2026, we’re doing something different. We’ve teamed up with the University of Derby to bring Marketing Mastered to the Cavendish Building for one night only. You’ll be in the room with local marketers, business owners, and some of Derby’s next generation of marketing talent.

The format hasn’t changed. Two speakers cover the topics that matter right now, then there’s a live Q&A with our host, Rob Twells, and you, the audience.

No sales pitches. No fluff. Just honest conversations about what’s working in marketing, what isn’t, and where things are heading. With free food and drinks laid on, it’s one of the best things you can do with a Tuesday evening.

Your business isn’t boring. So why is your social media?

Dave Endsor is a social media strategist and the founder of Chapter, a Derby-based social media consultancy. He has 15+ years of agency and in-house experience and has helped hundreds of businesses use social media better. He’s worked with brands including Blue Light Card, Miller Homes, Bayer and The Access Group. He also led the social media team that helped Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke launch her charity, SameYou.

Most brands use social media to talk about themselves. Dave will show you why that works against you, and how a bit of marketing theory and what you already know about your customers can turn your feed into something people want to pay attention to, whatever your sector.
