March 11: Creating a Newsletter That Connects: Level Up Your Communication is a hands-on workshop designed to help business owners strengthen relationships with their audience through effective email marketing. Participants will bring their laptops or tablets and use a free Canva template to design a one-page newsletter that highlights their products or services, upcoming events, promotions, employee spotlights, and more.
