What People Are Saying About Our Events
“I found that this session prompted me to look at my marketing and who my target market is. I came away with two pages of notes to push me and my business forward. Thank you for providing the session. Very warm and welcoming to all.”
“Good to be reminded of the need to plan, especially through the challenging times the country and small business is experiencing.”
“I really liked the group size, enough people to share and have input etc but not overwhelming or so big that we couldn’t ask questions. Respectful and knowledgeable presenters and I felt like the korero was enhancing to my understanding.”
“My main takeaways were:
1. the “customer’s customer” analysis to identify exposure to risks.
2. making sure that during business planning we consider what strategic enablers we’ll invest in if we perform better than our base case (and how we will respond if the business under-performs).
3. the categories of strategic enablers were also useful / thought provoking.
The Breakfast Series was practical, relevant, and highly useful. Thank you Loren and the Velocite team for sharing your insights.” – Sean Maskill, Partner of ABMM
