About the Event
Running a small business means wearing many hats-and marketing often ends up at the bottom of the to-do list.
Join us for a hands-on workshop designed for small business owners. Most SMB owners don't have a marketing team or hours to spare, so we'll show you how AI can act as one, helping you do more of your marketing in less time. Led by marketing experts, you'll walk away with actionable strategies and the AI tools to put them into practice. No technical background required.
