New East Manchester, in conjunction with the Chartered Institute of Marketing, is offering free marketing seminars to businesses based in east Manchester.

The seminars, which normally cost £300 to attend, are aimed at all businesses that have limited resources to develop their marketing and promotional activity.

At the sessions, marketing experts will give attendees advice and information on how to market their business. There will be three workshops running concurrently, covering the following topics:

1. Growing business in a competitive environment
2. Selling skills/client-facing skills
3. A practical introduction to marketing for new businesses

Each topic will be delivered by a Chartered Marketer – all of which are experts in their subject. There will be a question and answer session at the end of the seminars, and a team of New East Manchester business advisers will also be on hand to offer advice. The event will be a great opportunity to network with other local companies.

The workshops will be held at New East Manchester, No1, Floor 2.2, Universal Square, Devonshire Street, Manchester. Free parking is available.

Places are available on a first come first served basis. To book, please contact Mark Bamford at m.bamford@manchester.gov.uk or call 0161 234 1494 by Friday 26 February.
