ZOOM WEBINAR – SPECIAL PRICING
Learn the marketing strategies that the UK’s smartest entrepreneurs are using to survive and thrive during COVID…..and beyond.
The masterclass is delivered in partnership with The British Library Business & IP Centre which provides some of the best resources and professional training for small businesses in the UK.
COVID is a very challenging time for entrepreneurs – don’t put your head in the sand and let it destroy your long term business ambitions!
- It’s tough to gain clarity about how you should market your business during COVID with so much fear and uncertainty everywhere.
COVID has caused emotional upheaval in everyone’s lives and dealing with the impact of COVID as a business owner is overwhelming and stressful.
- People are searching on Google for, “should I stop marketing during COVID” Some entrepreneurs have stopped marketing completely or reduced their marketing to the point where it’s no longer effective. This has serious implications for your business.
It’s all too easy to plough on alone as an entrepreneur and not get outside feedback and support.
- The reality is that as an entrepreneur you MUST market your business even if you are temporarily closed or your staff are in furlow.
What you do will vary a great deal depending on what you sell and who your customers are! Getting the balance right of marketing without being opportunistic is a tough challenge for many business owners during COVID. However, there are lots of successful approaches that entrepreneurs are using right now!
However, there are lots of successful approaches that entrepreneurs are using right now!
- Harvard Business Review researched companies during historic recessions. They discovered that being too cautious or over-optimistic were the least successful approaches.
(During the COVID marketing masterclass you’ll learn the strategy that Harvard Business Review discovered that worked best.)
- Alasdair who is leading the Zoom masterclass comes from an entrepreneurial family. His father owned two restaurants in the highlands of Scotland and survived three recessions, near bankruptcy and a restaurant being burned to the ground!
- Alasdair has seen what it takes to survive and thrive in his own family as well as running his own business and working with hundreds of successful entrepreneurs.
- COVID is a huge challenge as an entrepreneur, but you don’t have to do it alone! See dozens of examples of what successful entrepreneurs are doing and meet other entrepreneurs during the webinar and work with them in Zoom breakout rooms. 🙂

Alasdair's advice was inspiring, creative and absolutely vital
We first met Alasdair as a guest lecturer at the School for Social Entrepreneurs. Before we worked with Alasdair, we were doing good work and winning lots of awards but we really didn’t have a clue how to develop our financial sustainability within the online community.
At the British Library Business And IP Centre, we gathered our social media manager, web-team and CEO who worked closely with Alasdair to build our online funding and engagement strategies. His advice was inspiring, creative and absolutely vital. Now, one year on and we're only half way through his to-do list….and boy, is it working!
As a result of us working with Alasdair, we have completely restructured our funding and monetisation strategy, developed new pop ups, redesigned our communications and branding and most importantly, found a new energy going forward. We still have lots to do but I can be sure that no other expert has had more impact on our growth and sustainability.
Thanks to Alasdair, Sky Badger has just been named a finalist in the Tech4Good Awards. We now reach over 1,000 families every day and since 2012 have helped over 1 million families struggling to find help for their disabled children.
Thank you, Alasdair. You’re Sky Badger’s marketing genius!

That actually increases your sales
Revenue up by 81% and profits up by 133%
In the 1st full year working together revenue has grown 81%, profit by 133% and costs are down by 20%.
Within 20 minutes of our 1st session, Alasdair identified the root cause of the problem.
Over the next 2 sessions with him, we built a robust and actionable plan for growth, that we then implemented. Those actions had and continue to have an immediate effect.
Perhaps equally importantly, Alasdair has provided an understanding and framework which means that all future changes can be bench-marked against our goals.
He's an interesting guy and works at your pace. He also will push and prod you, which may be uncomfortable to experience in the moment and comes from a good place, as he wants to and does help you get good results.

Helped me to be up to date with the most efficient & effective strategies for marketing a business online on a small budget.
This was a great workshop! Relevant for small businesses without lots of money!

A truly valuable session to attend for any small business owner!
Grow has taught me the importance of marketing and helped me to value it as a revenue generator and not an admin burden as I had previously seen it! It’s vital to my business that I understand and reprioritise the work I do; especially online through the website and in finding ways to approach new customers. The main benefit from the workshop was learning how to show customers that you can solve their problems rather than just selling them products.
The complementing workbook was ideal, the perfect size to dip into and well thought out in terms of practical tips and advice. Grow nailed it in terms of the location and the group size – a truly valuable session to attend for any small business owner!

However stressful, now is not the time to put your head in sand!
It’s difficult to put into words the chaos, stress that COVID has caused for entrepreneurs in the UK and around the globe. It’s likely the uncertainty caused by COVID will continue for some time and could even trigger a significant downturn or recession.
As challenging as these times are, now is not the time to put your head in the sand and work this out on your own! This masterclass will show you what other entrepreneurs are doing to thrive during COVID and you will get to meet like minded business owners.
