RICHMOND, Va. - April 8, 2017 - PRLog -- Business owner and small business marketing expert Patrick McFadden will guest teach at Virginia State University when he visits the VSU campus on April 27. McFadden will speak to business students, and invited guests.

Named a marketing thought leader by American Express OPEN, McFadden draws on his practical, in the trenches, real world years of experience to bring audiences of all kinds to the point where they can see possibilities. He writes and speaks about strategic marketing, the way context changes results, differentiation, being a practitioner, and most of all, giving more than you take. He has written over 500 articles that have been published on sites such as Yahoo! Small Business, Business2Community, Medium, LinkedIn Pulse, Greater Richmond Small Business Development Center, Infusionsoft, First Carolina Corporate Credit Union and more.

McFadden is President of Indispensable Marketing. He leads the firm from one audacious idea that marketing for a small business can be effective, actionable and strategic when practiced in a process fashion.

"Virginia State University is an innovative institution," says Jonathan M. Young, VSU Director of Corporate Relations. "As a change agent, McFadden will no doubt highlight the importance of real world skills for the next generation of business leaders."
