Many “top marketer” lists end up rewarding whoever has the biggest following or the loudest personal brand. We wanted to try something different: Every nominee gets scored the same way, based on what they tried and what outcomes happened because of it.
Nominating is free, and both Haus and non-Haus customers are encouraged to apply. Marketers across experience and seniority levels are eligible.
Olivia is the Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer at Haus. Prior to Haus, Olivia spent time at TubeMogul before moving brand-side to lead growth initiatives at Sonos and Netflix, pioneering incrementality testing and overseeing global marketing experiments.
Connor Dault is CMO at Superpower and most recently led marketing at Grüns through its $1.2B acquisition by Unilever. Previously, he built his career in growth operating roles at Dollar Shave Club, Caraway Home, and Quibi (RIP). He’s known for balancing the art of brand-building with the science of performance and growth.
Chris Lee is an award-winning marketing executive with over twenty-five years of experience in the entertainment and video game industries. He has a distinguished history of leading brand creative and global marketing campaigns for major interactive media and entertainment entities, including Xbox and Netflix. Alongside his corporate leadership, he has served as an industry judge for independent game competitions and the Global Entertainment Marketing Academy of Arts & Sciences (GEMA).
Winners will be featured on a special edition Open Haus episode sitting alongside judges like Olivia Kory, Connor Dault, and Christopher Lee, where their work will be showcased for an audience of incrementality-forward marketers and decision-makers.
Winners are also personally invited to attend Haus’ Customer Advisory Board event in Pebble Beach (early 2027) — with travel and lodging covered — where they’ll spend time with marketing leaders from some of the world’s top businesses.
Do I need to be a Haus customer to be nominated?
No. Anyone in marketing, growth, or paid media at a $50M+ company qualifies.
What if I don’t have a public case study to link to?
That’s fine — a concrete sentence or two about what you tried and what happened is enough to be considered.
Will you contact someone I nominate?
Only if they’re shortlisted or selected as a winner. We will always confirm with them before naming them publicly or inviting them to any event.
Is there a deadline?
Submissions are open August 14, 2026 – September 15, 2026.
