Testimonial from previous workshop attendee Jeff Caven,
http://www.resorthotelphotographer.com/, “ As a former chapter president of ASMP/New Mexico I found lots of things to use in Maria Piscopo’s new program. I learned how to facilitate creating a marketing plan. I am about to release my web site version 2.0. I learned a lot of specific things from Maria’s program I plan on using in its design such as: use of text for SEO, creating a more interesting website to get longer visits from potential clients and using forms in addition to email contact. Her program reaffirmed our commitment to simple, smart website navigation. I also got that kick- in- the pants to get my blog going. Maria’s workshop gave me the feedback that I needed to confirm I am on the right path by targeting a specific market. I unreservedly recommend you spend a day with Maria learning her strategies.”
