Marketing know-how in just a few clicks
As a small business it’s hard to find the budget to employ a Marbella marketing company such as ours to undertake your marketing activities. Of course, we believe its money well spent, however if you have the time and the skills to try to do it yourself, there are some excellent resources out there to help.
I always encourage my clients to take an active role in the marketing of their company and here are a few of my favourite websites where you can start learning about marketing techniques and find advice from experts on how to improve the marketing you are already undertaking.
As part of our commitment to supporting local charities, we’re helping Marbella Ladies Golfing Association launch their fundraising drive for 2011 by promoting their plans to the local press and the golfing press in the UK.
We’re getting excellent support from the local media and we’ll be discussing it on Talk Radio Europe tomorrow at 1pm. So far, The News Newspaper and Essential Magazine have agreed to run the press release and websites In Malaga Today and Marbella Family Fun have also picked up the story so it’s a great start.
We hope this press coverage will attract more members to the organisation, interest businesses in sponsoring their events and generally kick-start their fundraising efforts. Together, we’ll be working towards their ambitious target of raising 8,000€ for Cudeca and Ciudad de los Niños over the coming year.
If you’re looking for something to keep the kids entertained or simply want to enjoy some culture, there’s a surprising amount of theatre being performed around the Costa del Sol!
In Marbella, the Black Box Theatre is a great little venue which showcases interesting performances in drama, dance and music both in its cafe and the theatre itself. They run courses for children and adults as well and there’s always something going on.
This Saturday they are putting on their first production in English and as part of the ticket price they put on activities for kids before the show which sounds great fun. The production is called A Thousand Cranes and tells the true story of a 12 year old victim of the Hiroshima bomb who starts to suffer from radiation sickness and in order to make herself better tries to fold a thousand paper cranes. It sounds like a moving but inspiring tale and is recommended for children over 7 years old. This show will be performed on 15th, 22nd and 29th January at 5.30pm and tickets are 8€. To reserve your seat call 952 779 172.
