About this Event
Fundamentals in getting your business known
Date: 7th January 2025
Location: Treacy Hall, Wakefield Cathedral
Join Lois Kirtlan and David Kirtlan for an exciting event where you'll learn the fundamentals of getting your business known.
Whether you're just starting out or looking to expand your reach, this in-person event is perfect for entrepreneurs of all levels.
We share the best strategies we have used to boost visibility and attract more customers. No sale pitches disguised as workshops, no "we built our six figure business in 24 hours" nonsense.
Just two people who have each actually built a successful business from the ground up, telling their story about how they did it, and sharing knowledge and practices that other small businesses can implement the same day.
We work in completely different sectors, one being B2B and one being B2C, but our fundamentals are the same.
So if you want to learn how we did it, and be inspired, join us on 7th January in Wakefield for a day with a difference!
Don't miss out on this opportunity to network with like-minded individuals and take your business to the next level.
