Choose the right perspective

Match the business model to your question: leaders from fuel retail and lubricant brands can speak to consumer brands, loyalty and pricing, while those from pipeline, LNG and upstream companies can speak to commercial and commodity marketing. Also weigh company scale, since a global major and a regional or national company organize marketing very differently.

Questions to take into the conversation

  1. 01How do you build brand preference for fuels or lubricants when the product is hard to differentiate?
  2. 02How is commodity marketing and trading organized relative to brand and customer marketing in your company?
  3. 03How are energy transition products and messages changing your marketing plans and budgets?
