Marketing Systems Solved (seminar)
There is more to marketing than simply driving sales or crafting an advertising strategy.
In this interactive discussion we will reveal the relationships between marketing, advertising, and sales. Each has a distinct part to play in generating profitable revenue. You will discover the most important aspects that make each component work together and how to determine the best ways to incorporate each into your business planning.
Promoting your business is more than developing the right tactics and many small business owners tend to focus on what to spend time and resources on without investing the proper amount of time on why and how these tactics should be used.
After this seminar you will have a better idea about how to bring focus to your marketing efforts to make them more effective and efficient.
