Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 3, 2008 -- Constellation Management Group President and Founder Blair McCaw will lead a panel discussion at the Licensing International Show at the Javitz Center in New York on June 11, 2008 from 2:15 p.m.-3:45 p.m. Retail marketing and branding experts Sally Mueller from Target, Byrony Bouyer from Hasbro, and Blake Davidson from NASCAR will join McCaw for this panel to discuss brand management for licensees.

The panel discussion will explore how to evaluate exclusive retail licensing relationships and branding programs, showcase time tested brand management principals, and demonstrate how the right partnership between licensees and licensors can be a huge boon to an exclusively licensed retail brand.

I can't wait for the ideas to unfold in this discussion, and I'm confident attendees will take away at least one valuable lesson for their retail licensing strategies that will make an enormously positive impact on their business.

"In our uncertain economy, retailers are even more driven to differentiate their brand and satisfy their customers through strategic licensing deals. In one place at one time, show attendees will have the extraordinary benefit of the insight of marketing and branding leaders from both retailer and manufacturers that have repeatedly demonstrated the right retail licensing agreement can define success," said Blair McCaw, president and founder of Constellation Management Group. "I can't wait for the ideas to unfold in this discussion, and I'm confident attendees will take away at least one valuable lesson for their retail licensing strategies that will make an enormously positive impact on their business."

The panel is designed to be of interest to retailers who are involved in direct to retail licensing, manufacturers who do not have in depth brand management experience, and any licensee that is interested in doing a better job of building their licensed business through time tested brand management practices.
