About the Session: Bullseye Marketing

Companies that market better grow faster. Period. This has been proven across many industries and it is why big financial services companies typically spend about 8% of their budget on marketing. They got big by marketing!

But if you aren’t currently running a robust marketing program it can be difficult to know how to start. Email? Social media? Search ads? Print? Events? There are so many options! And, you don’t want to go from 0 to 8% overnight.

In this workshop, Louis Gudema will describe his Bullseye Marketing approach. His method focuses on first taking advantage of unused marketing assets so you can quickly and inexpensively start to produce results, before moving on to the more expensive—and ultimately even more impactful—long-term programs.
