Info Session: Marketing on a Shoestring Budget

With an ever-growing list of to-do’s, the idea of marketing and promoting your organization can seem overwhelming. Don’t let the busy work get in the way of real results, new customers and clients, and being creative.

In this brief and informative 2-hour session, Jesse Locks will cover 5 simple ways to market your organization for the
biggest bang for your buck! Attendees will examine a variety of case studies of organizations that have applied the 80/20 rule – the assumption that most of the results in any situation are determined by a small number of causes – and had great success.

The session will also evaluate the most effective platforms and modes of communication, and how to maximize each for YOUR organization.
