Evaluating Your Business Marketing

Today, marketing options are nearly endless: TV, Radio, Newspapers, Internet, Direct Mail, Newsletters, Billboards, Magazines, Yearbooks, Sports Arenas, Magnets, Social Media, Email, Pens, Place Mats, and yes, even Gorilla Marketing. And most come in several varieties. What strategies and methodologies would work best for your business? How do you choose? How can you expand your market penetration? How much should you budget? This class will give students an overview of traditional and non-traditional advertising methods, and individual counsel as to which would work best for participants' businesses. Feel free to bring in samples of your current ads or marketing pieces for evaluation. Ample time will be available for questions.
