September 17 event in Mount Dora to help small businesses and nonprofits maximize marketing success

Mount Dora, FL -- (SBWire) -- 09/10/2014 --Ken Countess, a Master Certified Authorized Local Expert of Constant Contact®, Inc., will offer "Getting Started with Email Marketing", a seminar to help small businesses and nonprofits in the East Lake County area understand how online marketing, newsletters and announcements, offers and promotions, online listings, and events can drive success.

At the heart of small business marketing are the campaigns that drive action – collections of marketing activities that help a small business or organization to achieve its goals and objectives. Newsletters and announcements have become a core component of these campaign choices. Email is more important than ever to the communication efforts of businesses and nonprofits everywhere and to the customer, donor, client or supporter of those organizations. This session will reveal some simple but effective best practices and considerations for the small business or nonprofit seeking to make their email newsletters more effective.

Sponsored by the East Lake County Chamber of Commerce, this “Lunch & Learn” seminar will include a live demonstration of the Constant Contact Toolkit and cover ways to take an organization’s email marketing to the next level.
