SUMMARY:Marketing Plan Workshop
DESCRIPTION:If you were to set off on a road trip\, you wouldn’t just set the destination and hope to get there. You’d look at options\, figure out your optimal path and determine when you’ll should arrive. \nMarket planning is like that. \nMarketing plans are the road maps and atlases that outline how and where your firm wants to go. But\, much like road maps and atlases\, they can end up collecting dust on a shelf while you drive around\, hoping to figure out where you are. \nThis session will take you through the steps of creating effective marketing plans and\, most importantly\, look at ways to actually implement them so they don’t end up as bookends on a shelf. \nPresenters \nMisty Diemer-Thurman\, FSMPS\, CPSM \nScissortail Marketing \nMisty Diemer-Thurman is the founder of Scissortail Marketing\, a consulting firm focused on marketing processes\, proposal development and data management.
