Garden Marketing – A Common Sense Approach

Better Marketing through Better Understanding.

The goal of the Garden Marketing Workshops is to help you grow your business by better understanding your customers. Most small business marketing fails, not due to lack of effort or desire but due to misplaced focus. Our hands-on workshops will get you thinking about your product or service like a customer would. You'll learn how best to reach them, where to find them and what to say when you do. Putting these things together will increase your visibility and your bottom line.

The course is broken into 3 sections or workshops: Customer, Message and Results. Each workshop takes approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes, with 3 hours total of in-class time.

The Garden Marketing Workshop is suitable for all businesses and is also accredited by RIBO for the Brokers' Continuing Education Program.
