IN-PERSON WORKSHOP: Marketing Essentials for Growth
Held on Tuesday September 19th, 9am-3:30pm EST
It can be daunting to roll up your sleeves and make plans to apply limited resources to your marketing wish list. There is so much to do, how do you decide what’s important? Once you decide, what is the best way to get started?
Join us in September for this in-person workshop to help you figure out how to create and tackle your marketing journey. Everyone will be able to work through hands-on exercises with a Marketing Mentor at every table to guide you and answer questions.
At the end of the workshop you’ll have concrete plans to share with your team back at the office.
