Business Development Forum - March 2013
Business Marketing
The Bartlesville Regional Chamber of Commerce has partnered with the Chesapeake Energy School of Business at Oklahoma Wesleyan University to bring you these sessions on business marketing. With the emergence of social media and other new forms of marketing, it’s important to stay on top of the changing marketing landscape.
The 2013 Business Development Series are led by popular Associate Professor of Marketing/Management, Wendel Weaver. Sessions are held at Oklahoma Wesleyan University in the Keating Center with check-in and breakfast beginning at 7:30am and program 8:00-9:00am. Each session is just $25 for Chamber members.
On February 6, the first session was on Marketing 2000: From the Industrial Revolution to the Technology Revolution. Sessions are very informative with ideas and tips that can be quickly implemented and are interactive with attendee participation and questions.

Remaining topics and dates in the series are:
Wednesday, March 6: "Marketing Your Business in a Highly Competitive Environment." A dynamic session that will help business leaders capitalize on their greatest strengths.
Wednesday, April 3: "Using Social Media to Grow Your Business." A vibrant session that will highlight several easy-to-use social media tools to drive customer loyalty and profitability.
