What previous attendees have said about this workshop:

 “I took a fantastic class given by Luke for SCORE East Bay. His presentation was incredibly insightful and provided me with clear action points to put to work right away in my company. Along with providing the PowerPoint document for us all to review after the class he forwarded us an E-book which is full of great ways to focus your business in the right direction to find your prospective audience quicker, easier and cheaper! Luke has been incredibly generous with his time and feedback and I am thankful to have access to his expertise.”

Luke's class provides immediate value to the entrepreneur navigating the complicated and daunting marketing terrain. He packs a wealth of information in an easily digestible and informative format without oversimplification. I continue to benefit and build upon what I learned in Luke's class as I develop my business, and am grateful for his generosity with his time and expertise.”
