Successful marketing is one of the principal challenges for any business. Do it well and demand shoots up, sales multiply and customers find you. Do it poorly and it becomes a financial drain on what could be a great business. This workshop is designed for creative and digital businesses to help them explore and create a watertight marketing strategy. This workshop will span two consecutive mornings.
