How does the Consumer Consent Council play an essential role in uniting and leading our industry on the measures of diversity, equity, and inclusion?
We start by doing what we do best; providing a platform for awareness and education.
We will leverage the Consumer Consent Council website, outreach, network, and Board members to build a centralized hub of resources for the industry to access. This objective falls within our core mission.
By educating and advocating for the things most important to the industry, we support the mission all members are committed to uphold. It starts by speaking up about the problem.
Steps the Consumer Consent Council is Taking Immediately:
- The formation of a task force committed to defining, acting, and measuring the goals of this effort.
- Supporting the major industry conferences and events to strengthen efforts aimed at addressing Black Lives Matter (BLM) and other diversity-related efforts. We will help connect these events with a more diverse group of industry resources as speakers and content providers.
- We will provide an area in our Resource Hub dedicated to items such as diversity-related best practices shared by leading companies within the space, as well as, other critical resources related to BLM and diversity-related matters.
- Supporting efforts of other groups focused on raising awareness and making progress on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, such as Ladies of Consumer Consent and Women of Martech.

Statement from Consumer Consent Council on Diversity in the Performance Marketing Industry
In the face of countless examples and horrific evidence that reinforces how much work is yet to be accomplished, Consumer Consent Council is speaking up to clearly articulate our position and plans regarding diversity in the performance marketing industry. First, though, it is necessary to clearly and loudly state our position: Black Lives Matter! Full stop.
There is a systemic lack of diversity and representation in our community. This issue is not unique to performance marketing or the lead generation sector, but the Consumer Consent Council is focused on this sector. As such, we believe it is essential that we add our voice, intention, and leadership to addressing these very real problems.
The lead generation industry’s ability to deliver sustainable value, innovation, and continued growth is threatened if we cannot ensure that the best, brightest, and most creative people, regardless of skin color, gender, sexual preference or religion are included in our teams and our industry at all levels of our organizations. To ensure success as individual companies, and as a united industry, we must begin the work together, in earnest, to attract, recruit, develop, and retain the best our country (and beyond) has to offer. The only way to achieve this is to ensure that barriers to inclusion are eliminated, both explicit and implicit. Consumer Consent Council and our Board Members believe we must play a central role in helping all companies in our shared industry make the necessary changes.
We do not have all the answers today, and we will get better at ensuring that we remain open to listening, learning, and continued feedback from our members and our industry at-large. These are just a start to our task force’s mission committed to fostering change and ensuring a sustained commitment towards making change within our industry.
Lastly, you can do your part by joining Consumer Consent Council in making meaningful change. Join a subcommittee, get involved, have a voice. Join our mission today! We are committed to making our voice a better voice! Black Lives Matter. We are stronger together and invite you to join us in the hard work ahead.
“Diversity and inclusion are paramount to the continued growth and success of the performance marketing industry. Consumer Consent Council is taking a clear stance and providing resources to ensure that companies in our industry have access to the information needed to continue improving the diversity of our industry. I encourage everyone to get involved and stand up for change.”
Matt Tillman
“Companies in the lead generation ecosystem need to focus on diversity in their organizations if they hope to continue to deliver value to their customers. Building companies along with the most innovative and creative employees - from all backgrounds, and at all levels - is the path to growth and success.”
