Our 14th annual marketing and leadership symposium, THE Marketing Event, is all about “The Power of Storytelling in Marketing and Business Development.” As marketers, it’s our responsibility to tell the stories of our firms and organizations. At this year’s TME, we’ll break down how the pros are using storytelling tactics to drive business, showcase the capabilities of their firm with a clear and effective voice, and ultimately, promote their brand.
Learn more on our #TME18 (yep, that’s our custom hashtag!) page & register today.
