Elements of a Marketing Plan

Creating a marketing plan can be a daunting task for many. I’ve created a mind map that has the basic elements of a marketing plan which you can use as a starting point. Add or subtract the items that are relevant for your situation.

The source file for the mind map is available for download. The file was created in Mind Manager 8. You can also get the clickable mind map and a PDF as well.

What I learned during “Presentation Skills for Introverts”

In April I took “Presentation Skills for Introverts” taught by Nancy Ancowitz the author of Self-Promotion for Introverts: The Quiet Guide to Getting Ahead. Click on the mind map image above to enlarge the image. The map highlights the key points that I took away from the course. Presenting is a skill that we all need but requires practice to master. During the course I got to practice not only the verbals but the non-verbals skills of presenting.

The instructor, Nancy Ancowitz has a section in her book that covers presentation skills but she also recommends the following books – The Exceptional Presenter: A Proven Formula to Open Up and Own the Room and How to Write and Give a Speech, Second Revised Edition.

There is another session of the class starting Thursdays, 6/10 and 6/17 at 6:30-9:30 p.m.
at New York University’s Washington Square campus. The cost is $110. To register – http://bit.ly/czeJFy
