Throw the formal marketing plan out the window (if you even have one at all)! Because if it's not simple, it probably won't get done.
This workshop is in response to the question, "What can small business owners/managers do to stay focused on their marketing efforts even when things get tough or busy?"
This workshop will provide practical, effective ideas for staying on top of your marketing efforts. If you can put aside 1 hour a week, you can stay on track. By implementing even the most simple form of a marketing plan, you will see improvements in your client, vendor and prospect relations... and your SALES! Come learn how!

This course will outline the basic cost drivers and help purchasers understand the ins and outs of the purchasing side of web design. Armed with the necessary information, you will be able to approach purchasing with confidence and make sure you get the best quality product and best services match for your money.
