The Graphic Artists Guild presents Ted Leonhardt "How to Find Out Who You Are and How to Sell It" Wednesday, January 26, 11:30 AM-2 PM Sara Chapman and I had a long conversation the other day about what I should cover in my talk for January's workshop. We were chatting about positioning creative businesses and she said, "You should talk about how to find out who you are and how to sell it." Perfect topic, because that's what I've spent my life doing. When I was building my own company, I continually tweaked our positioning to fit changing times and talents. Currently, as a consultant, my primary focus is to help creative people develop products and services that both fit them and meet their clients' needs. So, that's what we'll talk about this month. If your business is not growing, the experiences I'll share will give you some insight into how to turn it around. If you have any thoughts you'd like to share that could contribute to the talk, send me a note at ted@tedleonhardt.com or visit the website http://tedleonhardt.com/ Ted Leonhardt provides management consulting services to creative businesses. He helps companies adapt to changes in the marketplace by developing new products and services. Ted is an in demand speaker and writer for organizations and publications such as: AIGA, GD:USA, Packaging, Marketing, Communication Arts, and How Magazine.
