Join the Center for Women's Entrepreneurship (CWE), the Center for Regional Agriculture and Food Transformation (CRAFT), and Rachel Graper, serial Food Entrepreneur & Marketing Professional as she provides valuable guidance for food-based businesses to navigate the unique challenges and opportunities brought upon by the pandemic.

Through four interactive webinars on March 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th, we’ll explore marketing tactics and best practices to best communicate in today’s market. Business owners will learn tools and techniques to evaluate their sales models, create meaningful brand impressions, and meet their customers’ needs. Topics will include strategies to clearly communicate your brand message and maximize its impact through essential channels: website, email, social media, and more. Exercises will also include brand message building (for new businesses) and brand messaging audits (for existing businesses).

Webinar 4 - March 29: Integration: Maximizing Effort for Impact
This webinar will integrate the content covered in the three previous webinars and examine how to combine the sales model, branding, and marketing efforts for maximum impact and minimum duplication. We will also examine fundraising campaigns with a focus on crowdfunding platforms. This series will wrap up with a discussion on how to “Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing,” saying “Yes” to the most impactful opportunities, and just as importantly, saying “No” to the least impactful opportunities.


The March Marketing Monday Series is part of the Back to Business: Recovery & Growth for the Food Industry programming.


Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the Hillman Family Foundation
