Marketing in an Uncertain Economy: Getting the Best Value For Your Purchasing Dollars
With increasing raw material prices and a tough economy, business owners look for budgets to cut -- forcing every company to market harder, develop smarter techniques and use more cost-effective tools. Rick Spence will discuss how companies can achieve a higher return on each dollar invested and capture market intelligence that will help them sell more efficiently in the future.
Attend this seminar to learn how to get closer to your customers and use smarter techniques to expand your business - despite today's increasing prices and shrinking budgets.
