About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 15 minutes

The truth is that for many people, marketing has always been a big waste of time and money. Is this how you feel? 😣

So inevitably people end up relying on referrals and word of mouth. But these 2 approaches mean we’re LETTING OTHERS decide how our business grows… rather than US dictating how it grows.

We’ve noted there are 5 common mistakes that businesses are unknowingly making right now related to:

❌ Winning new customers and projects

❌ Social media

❌ Marketing strategy

And these mistakes are sadly spreading like wildfire and aren’t doing any favours.

In this webinar, you will:

✅ Learn what these 5 mistakes are

✅ And… Take away practical tips and strategies that are proving to work right now.

Yes, it is tough out there. But for the open minded, there is always room to try something different.

Let’s reel together, take some positive ACTION and get local businesses back on track! 🚀

Topics include all you need to know about patents, designs, trademarks and copyright. This workshop also covers the fundamentals of using the BIPC’s and your library’s resources to develop a strategic roadmap for your business. You will be introduced to concepts like the Value Proposition and to tools like the Business Model Canvas, to help you make informed business decisions, plan and offer value to your customer.
  • 'Get Started': In this high energy and practical workshop, you will find out how to set up your business and avoid common start-up pitfalls. By the end of the day, you will have the skills, knowledge and confidence to complete a one page business plan.
