DESIGN & CREATE
Who do you count on to make sure your business presence leaves a mark? Who do you rely on to make sure there's appropriate messaging online and in the media? Do you consult on your professional style? Where do you find true and real-time information about what’s going on in your community and around the world?

Designing messages for businesses start with good, old-fashioned planning, and putting pen to paper. This is how you build your champion diary. You can have one person coaching you through all of those tasks, you can hire an agency to get this handled, however, this workshop will teach you how to go write before things ever go left.
After identifying the serviceable, obtainable, and addressable markets, this session will help you write out what an editorial calendar with a sales and promotions cycle could look like for your business or brand.
Telling Your Story is a four-part series. You are welcome to attend one workshop—or more than one!
