Presented by Tim Underhill, Strategic Business Solutions, LLC

1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. EST

Description: Manufacturers and distributors both add value through the products and services they provide their customers, but being able to show the dollar savings beyond price these products and services provide is difficult for many companies. But with the rise in the price of steel, energy, plastics and other costs, the need to be able to demonstrate your value is rising.

This presentation will focus on why customers need suppliers that can reduce their total operating costs, and why you need to show your value. We then show you how you can document your value quickly and easily.

Description: Developing creative, effective, traffic-stopping marketing materials is merely one aspect of the marketing persons' responsibilities.

In this one hour webinar, Scott Deming will discuss how to create effective promotional materials with compelling, one of a kind product and service offerings. Once the message has been created, you will learn how to develop a strategy and process so that the entire organization can understand the rationale behind the messaging, as well as the expectations of the customers, based on the brand statements and brand promises.
