Wednesday, July 22, 2020 (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM) (CDT)

Description

Small and mid-sized companies are under constant pressure to perform. From competing with bigger players at a fraction of their budgets to attracting the right talent in order to succeed, effectively navigating these demands is a constant challenge.

There is one tool, if leveraged the right way, that becomes a powerful asset in supporting the growth of a business.

Your brand.

Adapting to shifting market challenges and evolving customer needs while managing your day-to-day operations can be demanding. Your brand should help make your efforts easier. It should not only relieve the pressures on your business, but should support it every step of the way.

Julie Hamilton - brand expert and co-owner of +Intention - will guide you through a discussion on the ways a brand can truly impact your business and help you uncover untapped potential in your own brand.

Join us for this interactive workshop and conversation where we’ll explore:

  • What actually influences your customers in their decision-making process
  • How to purposefully build your brand with your customer in mind
  • A way to assess the effectiveness of your current brand
