Is your confidence in your marketing strategy weighing you down?
Reinventing your marketing strategy is easier to think about than to actually do. From lead magnets to checklists, changing the course of your marketing efforts in no time is not only possible, but it can also help you identify the elements that need your focus, stand out from the crowd, and establish
long-term customer relationships.
Nils Vesk, author of The Reinvention Sprint, takes innovation to the next level by empowering
entrepreneurs to reinvent their business processes, driving sales in the process. He shot to fame when he released his books, “Innovation Archetypes” and “Ideas with Legs.” With 2 decades of designing the framework of innovation, Nils has been sharing his knowledge with the world non-stop.
