The Chamber Insight Committee along with our partners at Sunrise Community Futures will present an informational workshop on marketing for Chamber members on Thursday, June 16.
The workshopn entitled, Marketing Math, with Jill Sauter, will be held from 9 a.m. to noon at the Canalta Hotel, with a cost of $30 per participant.
Some of those who have established their own businesses have discovered that there are a lot of things in business that don’t go the way you wanted them to. You put out a lot of fires and the glamour of being your own boss has been replaced by the drudgery of being your own slave.
Business owners constantly react to things that happen to the business, and it is very tiring.
It’s also not profitable and doesn’t allow you to take advantage of opportunities. So what was your dream for being an entrepreneur again?
What would it mean to you and your business if you could:
• Plan for expenditures and secure financing years before you need them;
• Motivate your sales team and sell more;
• Make more profit;
• Hire the right person and not just someone who is available;
• Make your marketing investments pay off with increased sales?
Jill Sauter helps her small business clients claim control and enjoy their business more. With a little guidance, you can create tools to steer decision-making and improve planning for your business giving you the breathing room you need. Jill will help you learn to:
• Analyze and prioritize market opportunities;
• Forecast and measure sales;
• Evaluate marketing tactics;
• Create a simple, profit-based marketing plan.
Does this more work? No way. If you can’t analyze a market in 15 minutes, you’re taking too long. If you can’t fit your sales forecast on a bar napkin, it’s not worth it. If your marketing plan has more than three tactics, you’re overstretching. Focus, plan, execute and measure – that’s it!
Come to this workshop prepared to work at lightning speed (and walk away with tools that will change your business.
