The Great Falls marketing success workshop was well attended by Montana businesses, college and high school students, interested in learning more about how to simplify marketing and be successful by leveraging plans, technology, and networking. Thanks to the SBDC Montana and MDT DBE for sponsoring the event, and Hampton Inn for taking good care of everyone.
With about eighty people in attendance during the presentations delivered by Kitch Walker, Christine Tutty Johnson and Mark Mathson, there was good discussion, brainstorming and lots of note taking.
Better yet, the one-on-one discussions scheduled with the presenters were a success, each of the individual meetings allowed for a deeper dive into individual company and organization issues, successes and what doors could open with improvements and changes to their marketing plan and methods.
I was lucky enough to be able to listen to the other presenters deliver valuable information. Some of the best takeaways during Kitch’s presentation was building your brand as a big picture, focusing on building relationships with your customers and clients, scheduling time to develop your plan and quit putting it off. The networking portion was entertaining with Christine gave some humorous examples of what to do and not to do in a business networking situation, and how to craft a clever elevator pitch.
