The September CFG
Marketing Challenge
Is Now Open for Registration
Consistent marketing is one of the keys to success for freelance businesses and the CFG Marketing Challenge is a great way to make marketing a regular part of your schedule.
How the challenge works:
Challenges last for two weeks (Tuesday Sept. 8 to Tuesday Sept. 22). At the beginning of the challenge, participants share their goals for the challenge and keep track of all their marketing initiatives during the two weeks. This could include sending query letters, preparing book proposals, attending networking events, updating your website or marketing material, sending letters of introduction to potential clients, taking advantage of professional development to improve your business...anything that moves you toward getting new work counts.
We check in at the one-week mark to provide an update on how things are going and at the end of the challenge, share how we did. During the challenge, and in between challenges, we also share marketing tips, ask and answer questions, provide encouragement to each other and celebrate successes.
