9AM to 5PM
Ready to launch or grow your small business?
The Massachusetts Conference for Women has partnered with Tory Johnson to provide a full day of programming designed exclusively for current and aspiring small business owners. The Massachusetts Conference for Women’s Spark & Hustle Small Business Boot Camp will feature solo presenters, panel discussions, interactive exercises and structured networking. In this fast-paced, advice-driven day, we’ll tackle:
- Branding
- Funding
- Pricing
- Social media muscle (not money!)
- Marketing
- Public relations
- Sales
- Your entrepreneurial success!
Tory Johnson will lead a line-up of experts and small business owners who’ll open their playbooks to share the real-world tactics and strategies that work. You’ll leave with fresh ideas and new contacts—what we call “BBFs” (business best friends)—who’ll help fuel your continued small business success. Already own a profitable business? Our sessions and speakers will inject fresh ideas to help you re-energize as you continue to build that bottom line.
