Make marketing a priority for 2020 with this four-part series on how to effectively market and grow your business.
About this event
Don’t let marketing take a back seat this year. Kick 2020 off right with a four part class series designed to spark ideas, give you actionable advice, and show you the tools you need to accomplish your new goals.
You'll attend four 1.5 hour classes once a month for four months.
If you are serious about getting the most out of your marketing efforts this year, then these classes are a must.
We are kicking the series off with our most sought-after class: Digital Marketing Trends (we’ve sold this class out two years in a row!). Then the following two classes are all about your sales and marketing pipeline - how to fill it and how to nurture people to close.
The last class is how to put into action what you’ve learned in classes 1-3 without hiring a totally new team or spending a fortune on software.
Each class contains a 40 minute presentation and a 20 minute Q&A panel.
The 4 Part Series Agenda:
Class 1: 2020 Digital Marketing Trends
Marketing moves at the speed of light. The new year brings shiny new consumer trends, data, tools, tactics, and strategies. Add a few plays to your marketing playbook and stay ahead of the curve as we break down what’s on the horizon for 2020. We’ll discuss:
- How to get back to the basics of marketing
- The steady rise of conversational marketing (and how to get started)
- Steps to help you combat the “social media detox”
- How to choose a marketing technology stack that suits your business
…and a whole lot more.
Q&A Panel: Britany Ochalek, Marketing Director; Brooks Manley, Digital Marketing Specialist; and Kory Radford, Director of Sales and Marketing at Engenius.
Class Date: February 27

Class 2: Mastering the Buyer’s Journey Pt I: Drive Traffic & Acquire Leads
The buyer’s journey isn’t what it used to be. Acquiring leads and customers is no easy task, but digital marketing offers a ton of opportunities. Learn how to master the top of the funnel as we dive into SEO, paid media, email, content, and more. We’ll also answer some age old questions, including:
- What are the best channels for B2C v.s. B2B?
- What’s the best approach for local brands vs. national brands?
- When should you invest in advertising vs. rely on organic tactics?
- How do you keep up with the ever changing search (SEO / SEM) landscape?
- What Is Account Based Marketing, and is it right for you?
- How often should you be posting content?
