The workshop will cover how to tell your story, crafting an elevator pitch, target markets, advertising tips, and much more. 

Silver City MainStreet Executive Director Charmeine Wait states, “I have taken classes from Robyne and her classes are always fun and engaging. We are so happy to work with Jane Janson, the Director of the Small Business Development Center. Jane will be hosting the workshop in the SBDC computer lab at Watts Hall. MainStreet has heard from a number of downtown businesses that they need help with promoting their businesses’ so MainStreet and the SBDC decided to work together to get a class in the community. It is also a great opportunity to learn about the free services of the SBDC.”
