Fueling Growth with Demand Generation

EVENT SUMMARY In today’s crowded digital world, small businesses and non-profits face the challenge of getting noticed without big budgets. This event breaks down demand generation—a strategic approach to marketing that helps you attract the right audience, build trust, and guide people toward long-term engagement. Through real-world examples, simple tactics, and a live demo of Google Looker Studio, you’ll learn how to make smarter marketing decisions with data—even if you’re working with a small team. KEY TAKEAWAYS Participants will walk away with: A clear understanding of demand generation – what it is, how it differs from lead generation, and why it matters for small organizations. Practical tactics you can implement right away – from repurposing blogs into social posts to creating simple email nurtures and community-driven campaigns. A roadmap for the demand generation funnel – awareness, engagement, conversion, and advocacy—plus how to apply it to your own business or nonprofit. Data-driven decision making – how to track the right metrics (not just vanity numbers) to measure what’s actually moving the needle. A beginner-friendly look at Google Looker Studio – see how this free tool, with just a few tweaks, can help you visualize performance, set goals, and measure success. Why Attend? If you’ve ever felt like your marketing is stuck on “spray and pray” mode or that you don’t know which efforts are paying off, this session will give you a structured plan to attract more supporters, customers, or donors—without burning out your budget.
