I’ll be sharing everything I know on generating leads and prospects: leads are the life blood and oxygen to business. Without leads, there are no prospects. Without prospects, there are no customers. Without customers there is not revenue. And without revenue there is not business. But there is no revenue without sales.
This workshop will explore everything you need to know and more about marketing! It is in hackathon format. A hackathon is an event in which participants work on their business intensively for a short period of time. Hack or hacking from the word hackathon, shouldn’t be confused with gain unauthorized access to systems or writing software. In this context, it refers to creating shortcuts that increase output and outcomes. Hackathons are short events that are low-risk, yet high-yield. A hackathon forces participants determine where they are at, what marketing problems they need solve and then solve them in real time. There is hustle, urgency, sense of purpose, resourcefulness, creativity, agility and speed to market, all without “betting the farm.”
This is NOT a lecture (me delivering information) a NOR seminar (me delivering information plus discussion.) It has a small amount of information delivered, including theory, case studies and role-plays – enough for you (with me helping and answering any questions) to take that and create a step-by-step plan of attack in the workshop that you can implement after.
On completion of this hackathon students will be able to:
- Create a customized marketing methodology for their brand;
- Apply that marketing methodology to their brand;
- Create customised marketing communication for their brand;
- Apply that marketing communication to their brand;
- Create customise marketing content for their brand;
- Apply cold outreach methodology to their brand;
- Create marketing partnerships for their brand;

- Create positive publicity for their brand;

I’ll also ask you each week to report on the actions you took and will take so you are best positioned to get results – I don’t want this to be a course you never start – you spent the money and I want you to get 10x the tuition fee in value.

How much time will I need to set aside?
