Program:   Building an Actionable Marketing Plan

Guest Speaker:   Nicole Mahoney, President, Travel Alliance Partnership

Everyone is working with many moving parts, and no matter the size of an organization, we are all tasked with doing more with what you have and stretching your resources to the max. When it feels like just getting promotions out the door is an accomplishment, strategy is the answer. Taking a step (or two) back to return to strategy provides structure and peace of mind that all the bases are covered. While strategy provides the structure, it needs the support of an actionable and realistic tactical plan. 
 

Nicole will share how you can build a marketing plan of actionable tactics that feed strategy through the PESO model. The ‘PESO’ acronym stands for Paid, Earned, Shared and Owned Media. Learn to use the framework to turn your strategy into action, tying all tactics back to your main goals and messages for a holistic marketing campaign.
