Join us July 21 for Federal Channels: Government Marketing Best Practices 2020.
Federal Channels theme for 2016: Government Marketing Best Practices 2020: 2020 is your eyesight, viewing the market clearly for what works at present. As we all know, 2020 hindsight is always dead-on, but we use hindsight to what old tactics remain valuable and to see how they have morphed over time. Finally, we are looking forward to the year 2020- when none of us really knows what marketing will look like!
Government Marketing Best Practices was the first book to address marketing to the government as a discipline. The book was born out a seminar of the same name, which is still the premier Amtower & Company workshop and a cornerstone for the Government Market Master Continuing professional Education program.
The new book version of Government Marketing Best Practices 2020 will be provided to all attenders of Federal Channels.
The conference is at the Bolger Conference Center in Potomac, Maryland- see below for details.
Our Board of Advisors has helped create a strong program.
