In marketing today, there are more tools than ever...and more ways to misuse them!
In this NJSA webinar, we'll examine the most popular marketing tools being used in the staffing industry today. We'll look at both digital and traditional marketing, and show you how to get the best returns on your time and money.
Here are some of the tools (and questions) we will review:
- Direct mail - does it work? If so, how?
- Email marketing - can you get people to actually read your email?
- Blogging & social sharing - what works...and what's a waste of time?
- SEO - how do you get to the top of Google results?
- Sales collateral - is it needed?
Presented by: David Searns, President, Haley Marketing
