High Impact Marketing: Doing More with Less
When your company is in growth mode, having the right marketing materials is essential. However, the natural reaction in this economy is to tighten the reigns on spending and to try to do more with less. While you cannot afford to neglect your marketing materials, you can do more with less using connection, clarity and consistency. Our marketing map will help you evaluate your offering and your impact. Determine how to make sure your tools work better together and lead prospects in the right direction.
In this session you will learn:
- How to make the right marketing moves at the right time
- How to maximize the impact of each marketing piece
- How to avoid the dreaded ‘spaghetti marketing’
- How to make your budget work for, not against“ you

Canadians need to stand up for the families of those who put their lives on the line every day in the name of freedom.
Like many other great Canadians, Harper, Ignatieff, Layton and May have lent their names to the True Patriot Love Foundation because they understand the sacrifices families make to allow our soldiers to serve. Join us with Gen (Ret’d) Rick Hillier and other supporters as we officially launch the True Patriot Love Foundation.
The Foundation was established by Shaun Francis, Chairman & CEO, Medcan Health Management Inc. We will be announcing the details of a Tribute Dinner in support of the Canadian Military Families Fund, established by Gen Hillier to address the urgent and unforeseen needs of military families. This initiative has brought together political, corporate and community leaders who want to recognize the contributions of Canadian military families. The committee (see the attached list) plans to raise 1.75 + million dollars in our first year.
When: Thurs. June 18, 2009
Time: 11:30 AM
