Small Business BIG Marketing


On the 28th of August we attended the Small Business BIG Marketing event 
which was part of the Small Business Festival Victoria.

The Small Business BIG Marketing brings together the experiences and expertise of Australia’s leading marketers, brand developers, designers and researchers.

This year we were lucky enough hear from Carolyn Miller from the Gruen Planet and Dr Ken Cato AO (our hero) from Cato Brand Partners talk about their experiences in small business and marketing. 

Ken Cato’s advice “Have confidence to be who you think you are” and Carolyn Miller’s “Reframe your problems into positives” are two important tips we took away from the day.

The Small Business Festival ran from the 1-31 of August, it aims to inspire and teach people new skills to help start or grown their small business. If you didn’t get a chance to go this year, make sure you put it on the to-do-list in 2015.
