Marketing workshops for small businesses to be held

The Vt. Small Business Development Center and Springfield Regional Development Corp. are sponsoring a Marketing Bootcamp Workshop series, starting Friday July 15 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Howard Dean Education Center in Springfield. The workshops will include a panel of marketing professionals who will discuss their own experiences and answer any questions.

What are your marketing goals for 2016 and 2017? Do you want to reach more customers? Do you have the capacity to expand? Do you want to grow your bottom line? You may be an expert in the product you make or the service you provide but without effective marketing you and your business are not reaching your full potential.

The series consists of an initial 3-hour interactive workshop with two follow-up, 1-hour, facilitated small-group meetings to check in on your progress and receive feedback. The goal of the series is that you will develop your own one-page marketing plan that specifically identifies goals, strategies, and tactics for implementation. You can see improved results in your 2016 and 2017 bottom line. Plan to attend if you are starting a new business, want to grow your business, and need to develop your first marketing plan or get improved results from your current marketing plan. Space is limited and the fee is $99, registration is required.
