(1888PressRelease)
January 16, 2007 - In marketing, when a product is invisible, or when a product is a commodity (like tea), then the packaging becomes all important.
That’s true for any professional service. The longer the business image says “struggling professional” or "amateur," the longer the struggle. People listen with their eyes. A business must look as great as it is (or better).
In this powerful presentation, Mark Merenda of SmartMarketing explains the importance of marketing and branding in a not heard before. Just a few of the concepts that will be covered include:
Why image is vitally important to professional service businesses
How clients "listen" with their eyes and what image is telling them
The power of first impressions and how quickly and lastingly they are formed
Why investing in business image is one of the smartest revenue-generating moves to make
Plus more, with whatever questions come up.
This teleclass is aimed at Virtual Assistants; however, all professional service providers who have struggled with justifying the expenditure of funds on marketing and branding will benefit from the information presented and are welcome to attend.
