This is a brief introduction to the wide variety of marketing tools
that are free on the internet. These tools can be very effective, depending on your product and customer demographics. This workshop will only list these tools, when (or when not) to use them, and briefly how they work. The intent is to bring these tools to your attention. Hands-on, "how to" workshops will be offered later in the year.
To register, contact John Huggins at jhuggins@bheic.com.
“We who live in free market societies believe that growth, prosperity and ultimately human fulfillment, are created from the bottom up, not the government down. Only when the human spirit is allowed to invent and create, only when individuals are given a personal stake in deciding economic policies and benefiting from their success -- only then can societies remain economically alive, dynamic, progressive, and free. Trust the people. This is the one irrefutable lesson of the entire postwar period contradicting the notion that rigid government controls are essential to economic development.”
