What You’ll Learn at This FREE Marketing Workshop

This isn’t theory — it’s practical marketing education tailored for real small business owners.

During this 4-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to:

  • Your digital presence should belong to you — not your agency, not a former employee, and not a forgotten email account. In this session, we’ll walk through what true ownership looks like and how to make sure you have full control over your website, listings, analytics, and social media platforms moving forward.

  • Most customers start their search on Google — but many businesses don’t realize how small changes can make a big difference in whether they appear in search results or on the map. This session breaks down simple ways to help your business become easier to find online.

  • SEO doesn’t have to be confusing. This session explains local search optimization in plain language — what it means, why it matters, and how small businesses can start improving their online presence without needing technical knowledge.

  • Many businesses unknowingly block their own visibility with simple mistakes — outdated information, duplicate listings, missing pages, or inconsistent branding. In this session, we’ll show you the most common issues and how to fix them step by step.

  • Content isn’t just about posting — it’s about helping customers understand who you are and what you do. This session focuses on creating simple, authentic content that builds trust while also helping your business show up in search results.

  • Numbers shouldn’t feel scary. In this session, we’ll break down analytics into the few key metrics that actually matter — helping you understand what’s working, what isn’t, and how to make smarter marketing decisions moving forward.

Whether you’re brand new to marketing or just want clarity, this workshop is designed to give you real tools you can use immediately.
