Recently we organised a marketing event “Creating Email Campaigns with Mailchimp” at Torfaen Business Centre in partnership with a good friend of mine Steve from Allsorts Training. The event stated at 6 pm and went on till 8:20 pm. Participants were from different types of businesses from catering, recycling, consultancy to  indoor climbing.

It was quite engaging session where everyone had their say. The session made sense to everyone. This is quite different compared to quite a lot of seminars I attend where speaker talks and attendees wait till the end to ask questions. I found it encouraging that all participants were planning their campaign during the session and asking questions which relate to them. By the end of the session participants were able to visualise the whole picture of Email Marketing and relate it with Lead Nurturing, Social Media Marketing and Blogging. This was all about business and less about Mailchimp.

We have series of Digital Marketing Training planned which aims to empower local business with Digital Marketing Strategy to grow their on-line business at affordable cost which is £35.00. The next one is
