Marketing in a Tough Economy

By

Birmingham Regional Chamber of Commerce - skyscrapers

Looking for ways to tout your business, your brand, your product, or yourself? Even in a down economy (a k a recession), you need to take advantage of every marketing tool and trick at your disposal.

The Birmingham Regional Chamber of Commerce can help with its special “Marketing in a Tough Economy” seminar.

Join me (Wade Kwon), along with noted area marketing experts Isaac Pigott (Positive Position Media Consulting) and André Natta (Urban Conversations) for a half-day session March 27 at The Club. We’ll share our secrets and our caveats about social media, how to make the most of online communities, and what you can do today to outflank the competition.

(My hourlong session, “Getting Started in Low-Cost, No-Cost Social Media,” is first come, first served. We’ll cover Twitter, Facebook, blogging and whatever else we can squeeze into 60 minutes.)

Spots are still available, but limited to 125 total. Tickets, which include breakfast, are $25 for Chamber members, $50 for non-members. For more information, or to register, visit the Chamber’s event page.

  • The Club, 1 Robert S. Smith Dr. [map]

I hope to see you there!

    Great! Get your agency to pony up the $25 or $50.

    Not that Mr. Griner needs any more publicity, but you have another chance to catch him next week at a FREE event by AIGA.
