The Value Driven Consumer, A Guide to Marketing Success - Featuring Nationally Renowned Builder and Marketing Expert, Al Trellis
1:00 pm – 4:00 pm, Cost $50 per person
It’s not enough to build good houses, and to provide good value. You have to let your potential buyers know about you and the product you provide. This seminar is designed to help builders increase their profits by improving their marketing message, and getting more impact from their marketing effort. More and more buyers are driven by value and most are looking for one thing above all others. It isn’t the size of the house, or the architectural style, or even the location that drives the decision, although each of these may contribute, it’s the perceived value of the home-the sum total of benefits received, emotional and physical as well as financial compared to cost. Learn about the 5 value positions that tell the buyer what they can expect for their money. ---> info and registration |
