Buyer personas are fictional representations of your ideal customers. Developing buyer personas gives you a clear picture of who you're marketing to, where to find them and makes it easier to develop effective, targeted content that speaks to your ideal customers. This webinar will show you how you can create buyer personas and use them to develop a marketing strategy that will help you bring in more customers.
Monday, May 16th
10:00 AM – 11:00 AM
Cost: $29
Some people think one campaign, or a single marketing vehicle can take a prospect from awareness into consideration, prove your credibility and value, and then close a sale. Maybe this is true if you’re selling gumballs, but almost every other business requires a funnel approach. Modo Modo Agency CEO, Moira Vetter will discuss what a funnel is, what the stages of consideration and purchase are and how to ensure you have all the types of marketing content you need to win the business every time.

Digital Marketing
Basics for
Small Businesses
PRESENTED BY:
Sandra Wills,
The Graphics House
One thing all businesses from solopreneurs to Fortune 500 companies have in common is the need for marketing. In its simplest terms, marketing is telling your target market what products or services your business provides and how it can benefit them.
Fortune 500 companies can afford to pay a marketing team to get their message out, but most small businesses have to do their own marketing. This presentation will provide some tips, tools, info, and resources for small business owners doing their own marketing.
Sandra Wills is a visual designer and digital marketer who creates marketing communication materials for small businesses, government agencies and non-profit organizations. She is a certified partner with Constant Contact and provides services with their digital marketing tools. Sandra has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in graphic communication and over 20 years of experience in the graphics industry.
