Core Webinar - Best of Core Forum: Cut Through the Noise; Strategic Promotion

CHICAGO—Join Core for the webinar "Best of Core Forum: Cut Through the Noise; Strategic Promotion" on March 18, 2025, at 1 p.m. CT. Today's libraries are challenged with engaging busy customers who see thousands of ads per day. This session will provide key promotional strategies for staff at all levels to cut through the noise to increase customer engagement. Panelists will cover award-winning library marketing methods as well as introducing innovative marketing ideas used by other industries. By the end of the session, attendees will be able to create their own data-driven strategic marketing strategies unique to their community, establish ways to measure impact and analyze results of marketing techniques, and advocate for marketing dollars or resources to help meet the goals of an institution.

This webinar was previously presented in-person as a session at the 2024 Core Forum. We are hosting this webinar, with the session adapted and presented live as a virtual event, to extend its reach.
