A team of local marketing, design and communication experts have joined forces to launch an interactive training event for any South West company looking to improve its approach to communications.

The event, which is taking place on Thursday 7 July at Sandy Park in Exeter from 2pm, is being organised by a collaboration of top marketing experts from across the South West – ADPR, Anna Lodge Consultancy and Drive Creative Studio.

Love Marketing, is for anyone involved in marketing - whether new to the industry or already an experienced marketing practitioner. The event will go beyond the typical sales and marketing training courses. Kicking off with three inspiring keynote speakers from the region and followed by a wide selection of focused skill sessions, Love Marketing will empower attendees to develop their own highly effective marketing programme, using proven strategies for effective sales models, marketing, branding and PR.

Delivering key note speeches will be young entrepreneur, Peter Morris - from www.Lockabox.com, Jo Middleton - from award winning blog, Slummy Single Mummy and social media manager at the Met Office, Anna Slingo. Delegates are then invited to choose from a range of interactive sessions covering topics such as: sales models that work, making the most out of your PR, from product inspiration to developing a marketing strategy, measuring success and monitoring progress online, and getting buy-in from your board and staff.

Canapes and refreshments will be available throughout the event.
