BIG APPLE BUSINESS: The Luxury Marketing Council
Founded in 1994, The Luxury Marketing Council Worldwide is an exclusive, “by invitation only” collaborative organization of 2,800 top CEOs and marketing executives who represent more than 860 major luxury goods and services companies. Whom You Know thinks the Luxury Marketing Council is one of the smartest marketing ideas in Manhattan!
The Council serves primarily as a catalyst in bringing the brightest, most imaginative marketers of luxury products and services together to explore best practices and critical issues, and share intelligence on best customers and market trends. In addition, through the “incubation” of innovative marketing alliances and partnerships, the Council helps its members to grow revenue, expand share of wallet, and cultivate referrals from and loyalty of best customers—the 8.7 million individuals (globally) with liquid portfolios of USD $1,000,000 or more.
Each of the Council’s chapters, across the United States and globally, hosts a multitude of member-only events throughout the year including moderated panel discussions featuring experts in the luxury arena, Think Tanks, Executive Roundtables, Common Practice Surveys, CEO Breakfasts, and other events beautifully orchestrated by founder Greg Furman.
A representation of members include American Express, Baccarat, Baume et Mercier, Bergdorf Goodman, Blue Star Jets, Cartier, Christie's, David Yurman, Leading Hotels of the World, Maybach, Mandarin Oriental Hotels, Mercedes-Benz, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Montblanc, Movado, Neiman-Marcus, Richemont, Sotheby's International Reality, Steinway & Sons, and Virtuoso.
