WORKSHOPS
FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS AND NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS​
Best Practices for Marketing, Planning, and Production.
Marketing Workshop
for Small Business Owners
Owning your own business is the American dream!
​
With 25 years behind me as a small business owner,
I understand all too well the challenges of balancing operations, sales, marketing, networking, overseeing project management, and delivering excellence
to clients on time, every time.
​
Marketing, in particular, always presents a specific challenge for the small business owner.
With multiple moving parts that are equally important, it can feel overwhelming at times. Especially with so many marketing distractions coming at you.
​​
The goal of my marketing workshop is to help business owners be more self-sustaining without feeling stressed!
Learn how to "brand" your business with distinct messaging, design a good-looking website, develop meaningful marketing content, design creative marketing materials, and keep your social media humming along, all year long!
Event Planning Workshop
Best Practices for Non-Profits
Leaving fundraising success to chance is risky.
​
For more than 30 years, I've worked with non-profit organizations as a volunteer, a marketing consultant, an event planner, and production designer.
​
Fundraising Galas. Golf. Special Events.
Too often, non-profits tend to focus on one event at a time versus identifying opportunities for annual involvement that deepens the valuable relationships with sponsors, partners, and donors, resulting in more fundraising revenue and purposeful support.
​​​
The "best practices" workshop is ideal for executive directors, development directors, the community engagement, and the event planning & marketing team to attend.
I will share the ins and outs of planning successful fundraising events with insight on resourceful ways to give sponsors the best bang for their buck, plan thoughtful events the guests can "feel", think beyond one event at a time, and embrace your donors beyond just attending events!
