Staring at a blank page or screen? Waiting for the words to come to you? Does your writing meander and miss the point? The written word is all important and all powerful - it has to achieve so many things - catch the attention of the reader, interest them, inform them and inspire them to act.

Newsletters
Website content

Knowing your audience

Delegates are invited to submit a recent piece of copy (preferably a flier/newsletter/brochure) prior to the workshop for review and feedback.

Marketing

Every time you send an email, post on social media, write a letter or even pick up the phone – you market your business and you need to get it right. There are many strands to the marketing discipline and this compact, interactive workshop will help you discover cost-effective, result-driven methods that you can immediately mobilise, capitalising on what you do already and exploring all the areas of the discipline specifically for small businesses, such as:

However big, small or non-existent your marketing budget is, you will come away from this workshop with valuable actions that you can implement immediately to drive your business forward, retain existing clients and build new ones.

* We also run separate workshops in these topics which will deliver finer detail in each subject than time will allow in this workshop.
