Location: Adastral Park, Ipswich
Time: Noon – 6pm
Doug Richard, serial entrepreneur and original BBC2 Dragon, moves ahead with his ambitious plan to fast-track entrepreneurs and business owners onto the road of success. Due to popular demand, Doug and the School for Startups team are holding their much esteemed “Low Cost Fast Growth Marketing for Growing Businesses” master-class in Ipswich this June, located at Adastral Park. School for Startups is the UK’s premier provider of business training and tuition. The seminars are designed to be fully interactive, incorporating ‘live’ on the day delegate case studies, video examples, lectures, interactive discussions and Q&A; sessions. Doug’s goal is to teach participants the questions they need to ask themselves and equip them to find the right answers. Doug is a humorously entertaining host and will leave you feeling inspired and refuelled. The course is funded by the Economic Challenge Investment Fund (ECIF) and the University of Essex.
In this seminar, serial entrepreneur and investor Doug Richard digs deep into advanced online marketing tactics: the essential lessons that every entrepreneur needs to understand. Finding fast growth, effective and affordable channels to reach customers is critical to any business; but especially so for growing businesses during a recession.
Doug demonstrates how the internet has levelled the playing-field between your business and your largest competitors and why there has never before been an opportunity like that which exists for today’s businesses.
