BARRINGTON NH — Wedgewood Graphic Design, LLC, a local design firm has announced a series of free or low-cost workshops for local business owners and entrepreneurs.

Wedgewood’s Small Business Workshop Series is designed to help local businesses get competitive and successful by providing content and tools to help them grow and prosper. Attendees will gain insights into how to identify their prospective customers, attract them to their business and sell products and services more effectively.

“Sales and marketing is essentials if you want to have a thriving business.  It is the key to increasing your visibility, bringing in new customers and generating a consistent stream of cash flow.  If people don’t know who you are or what you offer, it’s going to be tough to build a profitable venture.  The good news is, marketing does NOT have to be a complicated or costly endeavor.” says Amy Spainhower, Owner of Wedgewood Graphic Design. “I meet and speak with entrepreneurs that are struggling. They are feeling overwhelmed or frustrated when they work on their marketing efforts. Perhaps they are spending time and money on processes and activities that aren’t producing results for them. I hope to share what I’ve learned as a business owner along with some proven marketing techniques I gained working in corporate America to guide small business owners to succeed”
