How to reach your customers

As a business, you might have the best idea about what you can bring to people, and then still find it hard to connect with customers, get sales and funding. Add COVID-19 restrictions to that and we have even more challenges about how to get your brilliant products and services to people. In this practical, hands-on session we will look at how you can understand how to reach your customers, how to overcome problems, and also hear how other companies have adapted to Covid19 restrictions so you can consider alternative approaches for your business.

If you're looking for support for your business or enterprise, speak to our Business Support Coordinator and we will put you in touch with the service that matches your needs. Contact Sibusiso on businesssupport@bswn.org.uk or via phone on 07425381037 Monday to Thursday.

We look forward to you joining us on the day,
