About International Women’s Day
The Women in Marketing events take place in March to coincide with International Women’s Day celebrations. This initiative has been promoting the story of ordinary women as makers of history for the past 100 years. It is rooted in the centuries-old struggle of women seeking to participate in society on an equal footing with men. Today around the world, International Women’s Day is always celebrated on 8 March and marks a celebration of the economic, social, cultural and political achievements women have made. It is the perfect inspiration for the Women in Marketing events.
Survey on Marketing to Women – and win champagne

The event is supported this year by Christina Ioannidis, CEO and Founder of Aquitude, a leading integrated communications agency. As part of her work with Aquitude, Christina has launched The Purl Influencer Panel, which gives brands competitive insight into consumer trends and attitudes through the female lens. Christina is inviting London members to complete her survey, and for taking part you’ll be entered into a prize draw to win a bottle of champagne!
“Women drive the world economy. Globally they control about $20 trillion in annual consumer spending… Women represent a growth market bigger than China and India combined: more than twice as big, in fact.” Harvard Business Review, 2009
However, over 91% of women state they are misunderstood by Marketers.
- What is behind this dissatisfaction?
- Which brands are perceived to be marketing to women effectively? Which are not?
- How can the marketing profession address challenges in targeting this growing market?

In this survey, Aquitude aims to uncover how marketers are embracing this new growth market – both as consumers and, also, as marketing practitioners.
Please do take the time to answer 8 questions which will take about 5 minutes to complete! All respondents will be placed in a draw to win a bottle of Champagne.
