SUMMARY:"The Client Door-Opener" Workshop: How to get in front of decision-makers and land big deals with personalized letters.
DESCRIPTION:If you want bigger clients\, you need a way to reach the people who can actually say yes.\nMost small businesses are stuck pitching the wrong people. Or relying on channels that no longer work: \n\nEmail gets buried.\nLinkedIn gets ignored.\nCold outreach sounds the same as everyone else.\n\nDecision-makers aren’t rejecting you. They’re simply not seeing you. \nThis workshop will show you a different\, far more effective way to get their attention: \nA personalised letter — written properly\, sent intentionally\, and designed to spark curiosity.

SUMMARY:TECH FUTURES - Possibilities Principles Practice
DESCRIPTION:Calling Business Leaders\, Movers\, Shakers\, Rising Stars and Tech-curious Changemakers… \nEver wondered what’s being worked on now that we don’t yet know about? Way back in the day (a few decades back) a chap from Sony was speaking on the platform at The London Chamber of Commerce in the City. He talked about how they were working on solutions for how you could control your house from a panel in the sitting room. Now it’s possible to control your household appliances from your phone anywhere in the world! \nTechnology is changing and advancing at a rapid pace! Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a hot topic right now\, but what’s coming next\, where are the opportunities and what are the implications for business\, specific sectors and the wider economy? There’s both excitement and trepidation in equal measures around the development\, application\, use and impact of emerging technology on the workplace\, life and humanity! \nPlease join us on the UK’s South Coast in the city of Southampton for ‘Tech Futures – Possibilities Principles Practice’\, an interactive day of presentations\, expert briefings and interactive lab where we’ll explore the next Tech Frontier\, the implications for businesses and how business should engage! \nTickets. Early Bird £25 (’til 1 Jul). Admission £40 (from 1 Jul) https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/tech-futures-tickets-1312281351849 \nSo excited to be hosted by the National Oceanography Centre down on Southampton docks.
