Speaker
 Rick Hanson
Small Business
Marketing Presentations and Workshops
...my way of giving back to my community 
Small business has served me well. Among
several small business endeavors, I was
an educational contractor of Small
Business and Technology at universities
and colleges throughout the San
Francisco Bay Area. I am also a former
property manager, web-contractor to
California agricultural concerns, and
have run a sales, service and support
business
for Model 100 computer owners
worldwide for the last 25 years.
Through it all, I learned and applied the basics of marketing. I discovered that there are just a few basics that if practiced thoughtfully yield dependable results. Yet I also know that the basics of marketing a small business is not well known. To this end, I decided to help through public speaking and workshops, all at no charge. What I have to present is not rocket science and it's not extensive. The basics can be covered in 30 minutes in a presentation to service clubs or any interested group. My 2-hour workshop presents the basics and then focuses on two vital areas; the marketing plan and A.I.D.A., a guideline for creating catchy presentations such as ads.
