Marketing Intensive

Mt. Eliza Business School, Mt.Eliza, Victoria | 2011 dates TBA

The marketing landscape has changed significantly in recent years…and it’s all for the benefit of you, the small business owner…the one with the modest budget who still wants a serious bang for your marketing buck.

I had high hopes for this Intensive but got so much more!

Lanie Donaldson, Marketing Manager, The Beechworth Bakery – August 2010

I speak to many small business owners who are looking for the big marketing idea to implement without the big budget. I simply tell them to find a way to get to Tim…he’ll sort you out.

Iggy Pintado, Author – The Connection Generation & ex-Marketing Director, IBM

  • Are you frustrated by spending time and money on marketing that’s not producing a decent ROI?
  • Do you like the idea of every cent and second you spend on your marketing contributing to your bottom line?
  • Imagine your business being so irresistible to customers that you’re always on their shopping list.

I invite you to join me, some very special guests and others just like you at Australia’s most practical marketing workshop…the SMALL BUSINESS BIG MARKETING 2-DAY INTENSIVE at the prestigious Mt Eliza Business School on Melbourne’s Mornington Peninsula (part of Melbourne University).

Exclusively designed for those who want to turbo-charge their marketing efforts, you will discover the marketing secrets that most business owners just aren’t aware of. Why do I know about them? Because I make it my business to find them, understand them and use them to grow my own business and those of my Clients. Everything I share is tried and tested by me, saving you time and money.

I’ve designed this Intensive because I’m sick of seeing good, intelligent and enthusiastic small business owners waste time and money on marketing that just isn’t producing the results they deserve.

Here’s the thing…Making your business irresistible to your prospects is not only possible; it’s much easier, cheaper and achievable than you think.

Great marketing should not cost the world… you simply need to know what’s available and how to use it effectively to generate inquiry and sales.

Your business is your baby, right? You’re proud of it and you want it to look appealing (make that irresistible!) in all the right places as often as possible. If you’re like me, then you want a constant flow of enquiry leading to a constant flow of sales. And you don’t want to have to mortgage your home to do it.

So, let me show you how to turbo-charge your marketing efforts so that every cent and every second you spend promoting your business works.

Even after 22-years in Marketing Communications I continue to be surprised by how complicated the so-called experts make the concept of getting more customers. I excused it during my 10-years working in Australia’s largest advertising agency; but started to get really agitated by it as the Marketing Manager for the country’s largest travel agency group. It wasn’t until I started my own business six years ago that I realised getting more customers isn’t as hard as is made out. Since opening my doors in 2004 I’ve always had just the right amount of fantastic Clients (you know, the ones you want to work with!)… and most importantly created more than enough income to provide for my beautiful family… .even after taking a year off and losing nearly everything as a Property Developer! And there’s no reason why you can’t too.”

My Marketing Intensive is designed to propel the marketing of your business to a completely new level – one where attracting and retaining the right customers is no longer difficult, onerous or expensive. IT’S SIMPLE. Applying the learning’s will enable you to reach business goals that may previously have fallen in to the category of pie-in-the-sky thinking.

It’s about creating the business you always wanted … one that attracts those whom you want to do business with in the long-term. It’s all about dreaming big dreams, and taking the necessary action to create them.

Why you must pay attention to Tim:

Reason #1: He started and hosts the #1 Marketing Show in Australia. Just key in ‘Marketing’ in to an iTunes search and BOOM!… there you’ll find Small Business Big Marketing front and centre. Take a listen to the show and read the 55+ written reviews from inspired small business owners who implement and benefit from Tim’s knowledge.
Reason #2: His popular 250-page marketing eBook… Cha-Ching. The sweet, sweet sound of small business marketing success… is overflowing with marketing ideas and case studies that continue to inspire small business owners everywhere.
Reason #3: He’s a small business owner himself who’s never struggled to get all the clients he needs paying him what he deserves. He is an entrepreneur, who actively lives what he teaches and practices what he preaches.
Reason #4: He’s spent 16 years in the corporate marketing world understanding exactly what great marketing is and what it isn’t. He now knows intimately what a small business owner must do to make their marketing achieve results beyond their wildest dreams.
Reason #5: He’s beyond passionate! Spend a day with Tim and you’ll walk away ready to take on the world… and know exactly how to do it!

It blew apart what I thought I knew about marketing in small business. You don’t know what you don’t know!

Claire Singleton, Owner, Peninsula Pilates Studio – August 2010

I find Tim’s marketing advice a great combination of information and entertainment. He breaks things down to easy-to-understand terms whilst not talking down to his audience. I’m learning lots of quick, useful tips that will end up benefiting my business and me in the long term.

6 SMALL BUSINESS MARKETING MYTHS…BUSTED!

(And we’ll bust them even wider apart during the 2-days!)

Myth #1: You need lots of money to do highly effective marketing.

I host the #1 Marketing Show in Australia (Small Business Big Marketing). It costs me $50 per episode plus 2-hours of my time. It gives me a global audience that runs in to the tens of thousands.

Myth #2: You must be creative to do great marketing.

You must be you! You’re the business owner; it’s your baby. Let your personality and style ooze out from all your marketing. Build your brand.

Myth #3: I can’t do it all myself. And I can’t afford to pay someone else.

You’ll discover how to outsource to specialists in their field…on a shoestring.

Myth #4: I don’t have time for marketing.

Great marketing does not have to involve hours and hours of your precious time. It’s all about setting up a marketing system that empower you to do more, with less.

Myth #5: Marketing is a necessary evil.

If you look at marketing as an expense then YES, it is a necessary evil. I’ll show you how to look at it completely differently; so much so that your marketing efforts may well become your greatest ally… an unexpected asset in your business.

Myth #6: I advertise therefore I market.

Advertising is no longer a cornerstone of small business marketing. The opportunity cost of this expensive marketing channel is huge. Discover how to redirect your advertising spend for greater ROI.

I found all the presenters fascinating and engaging. The casual, wear you heart on your sleeve, and your opinion as a bold T-shirt, was refreshing and inspiring. Tim you are an inspirational speaker … thanks for being so … well … human!!!

Claire Singleton, Owner, Peninsula Pilates Studio – August 2010

Tim is a great presenter….very engaging, entertaining and insightful. Guest speakers were relevant and consistant with the theme of the Intensive….also, Loved the Hot seat!…

Bobby Karanfilov, Owner, Simply Green Salary Packaging

Ah, the HOT SEAT…a time during the 2-days where you get to sit on the Hot Seat and have any part of your current marketing efforts interrogated, constructively criticised and put back together by Tim and everyone else in the room. Not compulsory, but unbelievably helpful.

And here’s best part:

You don’t need to know anything about marketing.

You don’t need to purchase any expensive systems or products.

You don’t have to implement everything you discover immediately.

The Intensive is 100% guaranteed.

What the 2-DAY MARKETING INTENSIVE is not?
  • It’s not a talkfest where you hear from speakers trying to sell you stuff.
  • It’s not a marketing workshop where you’re burdened by theory that has no relevance in the real world of small business.

  • It’s not for corporates…It’s the for the small business owner looking to do big things!
