Workshop: Telling Your Impact Story

02/22/2023 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM ET

Summary

Join SBN for an interactive workshop with communications expert Edel Howlin on ways to stand out and garner positive attention for your business.

Description

Sustainable businesses today significantly contribute to improving our planet, community, and overall economy. Yet, it's become more challenging for small, values-driven businesses to stand out among their competitors. Greenwashing and a lack of transparency make it harder for consumers to tell the "real deal" from companies that may follow through on their practices. Being able to tell your impact story goes a long way for sustainable businesses to stand out from their competition and garner the positive attention they need.

 

Join SBN for a workshop with communications expert Edel Howlin, who has supported sustainable businesses in their storytelling journey. During this interactive workshop, you will learn how to use press releases, media alerts, and other communications tools to your business's advantage. Materials will be distributed before the workshop, so you'll be prepared with specific questions and receive pro-bono communications guidance. Guests are encouraged to bring questions  to this highly interactive and participatory session, as well as network with other local business leaders over a light breakfast fare and coffee.

Time: 10am 

Location: SBN's Offices (915 Spring Garden Street, Suite 502, Philadelphia, PA, 19123)
