This intensive workshop covers all the key marketing foundations essential to understanding how to market any business and put into place a solid marketing plan.

You’ll learn the basics of brand strategy that you can apply to a business, corporate or non-profit (or perhaps just a good idea).

Part 3: Value Creation Mix
