Mike Cessario Biography

Mike Cessario is the Founder and CEO of Liquid Death, one of the fastest growing non-alcoholic beverage brands. He was recognized by Time 100 Next 2024 as an emerging leader shaping the future and defining the next generation of leadership.

Liquid Death is the first beverage company using comedy and entertainment to make health and sustainability 50 times more fun. It takes the healthiest thing you can drink and packages it into infinitely recyclable tallboy cans that can actually compete with the fun marketing of unhealthy brands across energy drinks, beer, and junk food. A portion of Liquid Death’s proceeds goes to non-profits who are helping to fight plastic pollution and bringing clean drinking water to those in need.

Prior to Liquid Death, Cessario worked in the agency world as a creative executive at Doner, VaynerMedia, Crispin Porter Bogusky, and Humanaut. His agency work spanned brands including Netflix, Organic Valley, Dominos, Toyota and more.

Entertain or Die: Day Trading Attention for the 21st Century

Advertising is easy. Ask the average person if they could come up with a great idea for a commercial. Most will say yes. That’s because the bar for 99% of advertising is so low. But if you ask them if they could write a hit comedy TV show or create an Instagram account with three million followers, almost none of them will say yes. Entertaining is hard. But people actually care about entertainment. No one cares about marketing. We easily tune it out or skip it. In this session, Mike Cessario, the CEO and Founder of Liquid Death, will discuss the ability to generate outsized returns in the modern media landscape with an entertainment-first approach to brand-awareness and brand-loyalty.
