Grow Wabash County, Content Creative to Host Marketing Workshop Series

WABASH, IN – Grow Wabash County is teaming up with Melissa Meredith, owner of Content Creative marketing firm, to present “Thinking Big in Your Smaller Business,” a series of workshops to help Wabash County businesses of all size and industry boost their message through effective marketing.

This workshop will have four sessions between September 2021 and January 2022. The first three will be hosted virtually over Zoom to break down some of the key concepts of marketing: branding, digital marketing and content creation.

The fourth session will be an in-person workshop with Meredith to actually create a marketing plan for each business.

“Grow Wabash County is always excited to bring new and relevant educational opportunities to our Grow Wabash County investors and the Wabash County business community at large,” Keith Gillenwater, president and CEO of Grow Wabash County, said. “We are especially excited to be working with a professional that grew up in Wabash County and is enthusiastic about providing her insight on marketing for businesses of all sizes.”

Meredith is a Wabash County native, having grown up in Wabash and graduated from Southwood High School. Meredith attended Indiana University with a degree in Telecommunications, and eventually founded Content Creative, a marketing firm based out of Tampa, Florida.

“It’s been so great to see the growth in Wabash County over the years and the influx of businesses small and large that have called Wabash home,” Meredith said. “I look forward to sharing my marketing knowledge with these business owners and helping to grow their own marketing education and empower them in order to continue serving Wabash County and beyond.”

This four-part series will meet monthly via Zoom between September and November on the second Friday of each month from 8 – 9 a.m. . The fourth session will be an in-person half-day workshop on Friday, January 14, from 8 a.m. – Noon.

Tuition for the “Thinking Big in Your Smaller Business,”  program is $40 for Grow Wabash County Investors and $50 for the general public. Each attendee will receive both group instruction as well as one-on-one work with Meredith through the duration of the workshop. Businesses will also have access to Meredith’s marketing consultation services at a discounted rate following the completion of the four-part series.
