SUMMARY:Sell Smarter. Market Better with BACD and the APBOT - Networking That Leads to Business
DESCRIPTION:Sell Smarter. Market Better with BACD and the APBOT\nSell Smarter. Market Better is a practical workshop series created to help local business owners strengthen the two areas that most directly impact growth: sales and marketing. The Ajax Pickering Board of Trade and the Business Advisory Centre Durham have partnered on this series to combine strong local connections with hands‑on business expertise. Together\, we're supporting small businesses with clear\, realistic tools they can actually use\, whether that's improving sales conversations\, networking with purpose\, marketing on a budget\, or getting found online through Google Business Profile. This collaboration is about meeting business owners where they are\, reducing overwhelm\, and helping them take confident\, practical steps toward sustainable growth.\nWorkshop 2: Networking That Leads to Business Turn connections into opportunities\, not just conversationsNetworking is one of the most powerful tools business owners have\, when done with intention. This session helps you approach networking strategically\, build meaningful relationships\, and follow up in ways that lead to referrals\, partnerships\, and sales.You'll walk away with:A clear networking purpose and planStronger introductions and conversationsFollow‑up strategies that create momentumPhotography Policy The Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade (APBOT) reserves the right to photograph and record its' events\, and may use this content in publications\, posters\, and/or graphics.
