11 Business Capability Workshop: Find your formula with Business of Brand

Time: 12.00 pm-2.00 pm Venue: National Hockey Centre, 159 Bush Road, Rosedale When driven by short term revenue, businesses are often focused on pushing their products and their own short term agenda, not a sustainable, equity-based business model truly focused on the needs of their clients. This results in “lurchy” income. There is a better way - a purpose-led approach that takes your customer on a journey of awareness, which can be leveraged and scaled, in order to create long term equity in their business.
