2010 or Bust
(PHOENIX, Ariz.) — The Society for Marketing Professional Services Arizona chapter presents its next monthly program Positioning Your Firm for Success in 2010 on Nov. 19, 2009, 7:15–9:00 a.m., at the Fiesta Inn Resort, 2100 S. Priest Drive, Tempe. The cost of the program is $35 for SMPS members, $60 for non-members and $70 for walk-ins, which includes breakfast and program registration.
Program Description
The U.S. economy has been in a recession since December 2007. One of the hardest hit market sectors is the construction industry, with dire effects in Arizona. National indicators suggest that things are starting to look up, and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke declared in September of 2009 that "from a Technical Perspective, the recession is very likely over at this point."
So what does this mean for the A/E/C industry in Arizona? When can we truly see an economic recovery in the construction market? Join SMPS for the November 19th program to hear a panel of Industry experts discuss how to plan for and position your firm for the coming year and the eventual end of the recession.
In this program participants will learn what strategic planning tools to utilize, what markets to look at, how to maximize shrinking resources, does the recession change how we market clients, and predictions on what markets will emerge from the recession.
Panelists include:
