Marketing for Hippies! Workshop in Lancaster, Wed 5th October 10-12 and 2-4

MARKETING FOR HIPPIES! - pay what you can/pay what it's worth to you/ from Free to £20.00.

Are you a holistic and idealistic person trying to make a living doing stuff you believe in, who
doesn't want to get involved with traditional marketing because you think it's too commercial?

You are invited to a workshop on Wednesday 5th October 2011, 10-12 and 2-4, at DACRELANDS Centre for Health, Aldrens Lane, Skerton, Lancaster, LA1 2DU - a 20 minute walk from the centre of Lancaster, near Ryelands Park.
[THE MORNING WORKSHOP HAS SOLD OUT BUT THERE ARE STILL PLACES IN THE AFTERNOON]
Read on, and then if you're interested, contact DAWN KEYSE to confirm your place - email her on dawnkeyse@gmail.com , phone 07515 426670.
(Nb there are some stairs up to the room currently booked: please let us know if you have mobility issues and we will arrange an alternative venue).

The seminar is with Tad Hargreave, a Canadian who founded www.marketingforhippies.com. He's over in the UK for a short time, and most likely won't be coming back for a while. You can get a load of free stuff about marketing from his website www.marketingforhippies.com and get a feel for what the seminar is about - or read on, below.

This 2 hour workshop is for you if you're a Holistic Practitioner, or in the Healing Arts, perhaps you are selling a natural, eco-friendly, cruelty-free or otherwise healthy product, or maybe you’re a local business owner that just plain cares deeply about your community, nature and social justice? . . . and you want to be a better marketer, but you struggle with it. You just don’t get great results.


In this workshop, you will be learning:


-the underlying principles of how marketing for holistic practitioners works (don't worry, it's not pushy or gross or expensive).

-an overview of the top ten, foundational marketing things every holistic practitioner must have (and they're not business cards, brochures, fancy logos or ads in holistic magazines).

-the biggest two blunders that practitioners make when trying to describe what they do (and a simple, fill in the blanks phrase you can use to have people immediately 'get' you).
