Disruptor brands can inspire passionate followings by standing out. But as the brand evolves, there's a tendency for disruptors to lose the aspects and personality that made people fall in love with them in the first place. Their unique features get filed down and they start to look like any other brand in their vertical.

But according to Matt Sutton, CMO of The Black Tux, it doesn't have to be this way.

Matt has made it his mission to keep The Black Tux's disruptor edge, and he joined us to share how and why you can do the same. Discover how the right combination of creativity, technology, and personalization can help you hone that edge for a long time to come.
