As we are aware, the internet is now a crucial aspect of business. Unknown to many, the marketing possibilities the internet offers are endless; the majority of the time free and easy to use.

Award winning entrepreneur Fiona Hudson-Kelly is offering you a one day workshop that will enable you to enhance your internet marketing knowledge and capabilities.

The course is extremely successful: “I think Wednesday was the most productive day I have spent in years” Jane Logan – Elite Personnel, after attending Fiona’s workshop.

 It’s a great day, Fiona only works with 8 companies at any one time which means that you get plenty of time to interact and exchange ideas with each other.  The workshop is designed for small company owners to learn how to grow their business using the marketing opportunities offered by the internet, most of which are free and easy to use, blended with other conventional marketing secrets that Fiona will share with you.

Throughout the day Fiona will focus on your company. She will have already researched your company and have her recommendations. The workshop will cover:-

Ø    Creating your marketing strategy using simple marketing models

Ø    Planning and implementing a high impact marketing campaign using a blend of:-

Ø  E-mail marketing

Ø  Blogging

Ø  Social Networking

Ø  Publishing Articles Online

Ø  Relationship Marketing

Ø  Data Sources

Ø  Web 2.0 Technologies

Ø  Affiliate Marketing

Ø  Guerrilla e-marketing

Ø  Being ‘talked’ about online

Ø  PR

Ø  Getting ahead of your competitors in Google searches

Ø  Finding new clients

Ø  E-mail marketing

Ø  Direct Marketing

Ø  Online advertising

Ø  Keeping in touch with existing clients

Ø    By the end of the day you will have learnt how to create a high impact, low cost, marketing campaign for your own company that you can start to implement immediately.

 All of which will give you a freshly energised approach to sales and marketing that will help you get through the current economic climate in better shape than your competitors who aren’t being proactive.
