From the San Juan County Economic Development Council

Why do some marketing messages work and some don’t? How can business owners improve their company’s “message” to make it stick in the minds of customers?

Learn how to create a cohesive, compelling message in the EDC’s upcoming workshop entitled, “Making It Stick: Crafting A Message They’ll Remember.” The free workshop will be held from 9-11 on November 16, at Skagit Valley College’s community room.

Join writer and English teacher Ian Byington to learn to craft your words so that people will not only remember what you do, they’ll act when it’s time to buy. This useful workshop will help business owners transform the way they communicate ideas.

The workshop will be held from 9-11 on November 16, at Skagit Valley College’s community room, downstairs, at 221 Weber Way, Friday Harbor. Please call or email to register: (360) 378-2906, info@sanjuansedc.org.

The EDC thanks San Juan County for supporting our fall Business Education Series.

The San Juan County Economic Development Council’s Business Education Series was created by the EDC in response to concerns from local business owners and overall increased demand from new businesses. This series presents a variety of business topics designed for both those opening a new business or those wanting to take their business to the next level. The Business Education Series was funded in part by San Juan County government.

The San Juan County Economic Development Council (EDC) strives to strengthen and diversify the economy of San Juan County. We believe a strong economy builds a strong community. The EDC works to build an environment that helps business owners create jobs. We serve business: linking organizations and resources, providing valuable information, rendering assistance and advocating for an improved island business environment.
