Sales and Marketing Roundtable: Creating a Compelling Value Proposition - Change Your Company’s Solution from a “So What” to a “Must Have”

Walk-ins are welcome to register on the day of the event. 

What problem does your product or service solve? How important is this
problem? Who will benefit from the solution and how?
 
These are three questions every prospective customer, user, and investor will have. And, in today's competitive environment, success depends on providing them with clear, concise relevant information that addresses these concerns-before they ask.
 
Join Barbara Bix, Principal of BB Marketing Plus, for a lively meeting where we'll discuss how to develop and deploy value propositions that will capture attention and motivate key stakeholders to take action.
 
Participants will learn how to:
- Determine what makes a value proposition compelling
- Identify gaps in current marketing messages
- Create compelling new value propositions and validate the effectiveness of existing value propositions
- Assess the cost of ineffective value propositions to help justify funding for this important initiative
