Technical track - 10.30am -11.00am
Troubleshoot Magento with NewRelic
In this session, Oleksandr will talk you through how to use the NewRelic service to observe, manage and prevent potential issues with your Magento installation. But what is NewRelic? And how can it help?
NewRelic
NewRelic is a server monitoring service that will show you the overall health of your server/s using lots of different metrics.
One of the best uses of the NewRelic service is its ability to alert you if the server might be heading into trouble before it happens, meaning you can almost future proof your server/s.
Who is this for?
If you are a merchant or business owner looking to understand more about how NewRelic can help your business or a developer looking to learn new skills, expand your knowledge or need a refreshing perspective then this is the seminar for you.
Who is Oleksandr Lyzun?
With over 15 years of experience working on and developing Magento installations, Oleksandr is now the Magento team lead at Comwrap. He is also active in the broader Magento ecosystem as a community and DevDocs maintainer and owns the coveted title of Magento Master.

Russell Flawn
Solution track - 10.30am -11.00am
Pure360: Psychology of Email Marketing
There are those out there that claim that email marketing is dead and a thing of the past but, let's be honest here, they're just kidding themselves.
Join Russell Flawn as he dives into the world of Email marketing and how you can use behavioural economics to focus on those customers you want to reach. But what is behavioural economics? I hear you ask.
Behavioural economics
Behavioural economics observes the decision-making process of an individual or organisation. Then it takes into consideration the effects that psychological, cognitive, emotional, cultural and social factors played into making that decision.
Don't worry if that sounds incredibly complicated because you have Russell, an expert in this area, to explain it in more detail and to show you new and innovative ways to use this marketing channel.
Who is this for?
If you don't do any kind of email marketing or if you do but you're stuck in a rut then this will be a great seminar for you. Email marketing is as valuable as ever and if you want to know how to leverage this channel to acquire and create loyal customers then this is a session you don't want to miss.
Who is Russell Flawn?
Russell worked at Telegen UK for two years as a telesales agent and later as a team leader before moving to Reed finance as a consultant. A year later he found his 14 year home at Pure 360 as their business development manager for the agency team. Since then he has been a sales manager, the head of channel and international sales, the head of partnership management, head of product marketing & DPO and the head of strategy & partnerships before recently becoming Pure 360's commercial director.
