THE PUBLIC IMAGE WORKSHOP

Let’s face it… communications and “branding & marketing” can feel daunting or icky – or both (yeah, definitely both!).

​But, what about sharing your true identity? Telling a cool story? Honestly engaging people through your passionate ideas and creative work? Sounds better, right? The good news is that it IS better. All of those authentic approaches have been proven to be a much better way to “promote” after all. Win/Win!
The Public Image Workshop is an 12-Week series that teaches the Public Image Works method that helps good people promote their great work. From “Action Plan Clarity” to developing “Your Public Image Plan,” The Public Image Workshop walks through everything you need to manage your communications and publicity so you can focus on your real work!
