April Webinar: Tell Unforgettable Stories to Win Work and Recognition
2024-04-25 14:00 - 15:30 | Virtual, VA, United States
Design is a communication tool and when we communicate, we tell stories. But are those stories unforgettable and high impact? Often, what’s missing from those stories is a clear narrative arc that connects and moves the audience. Making the emotional connection and demonstrating impact is what differentiates leaders and their work. Through a series of prompts and interactive exercises, participants will develop the seeds of unforgettable stories that will move and delight their audiences – whether they hope to reach an award jury or their next client. These tools to identify narrative will enable participants to develop winning proposals, pitches, and award submissions.

May webinar: How to Use Email Marketing to Drive Referrals
2024-05-16 14:00 - 15:30 | Virtual, VA, United States
Email marketing remains the holy grail for ROI in B2B marketing, especially for professional services. The professional services buying cycle is characterized by a lengthy, intricate process. The notion that you’ll magically appear on your ideal customer’s radar just when they’re ready to spend money on your unique services is far from realistic. AEC marketers need to efficiently capture a prospect’s attention, give them a tangible resource to subscribe to, and then keep them engaged with great content that repeatedly convinces them that the firm is the ideal partner.
King will impart best practices for bringing AEC buyers into a firm’s fold and preventing them from unsubscribing. She will cover how to strike a balance between the information needs of your ideal prospects and your firm’s expertise. King will also explore how to build, segment and nurture an email list.
