Cortez to Host Free Digital Marketing Classes for Local Businesses Starting February 10
Attention all Cortez business owners and community members! If you’ve ever wanted to improve your digital marketing skills, you’re in for a treat. The city of Cortez is kicking off a series of free digital marketing classes designed to help local businesses thrive in today’s digital landscape. The classes are part of an initiative organized by the Cortez Community and Economic Development Team and they’ll begin on February 10!
Why You Should Attend
In our fast-paced digital world, knowing the ins and outs of marketing online can be the difference between getting lost in the crowd or standing out. These classes will be held over four sessions, with each focusing on various aspects of digital marketing that will help businesses attract customers, drive sales, and build a strong brand.
The Details
The first class is set for February 10 and running through to March 24, featuring a different topic for each session. Here’s a quick look at what’s on the calendar:
- February 10: “Communicating Your Why: Creating a Magnetic Brand Identity”
- February 24: “Developing a Winning Marketing Strategy”
- March 10: “Making Your Website Your Most Valuable Team Member”
- March 24: “Demystifying SEO”
Each class will take place from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m., with two options for attendance: you can join virtually or come in-person at City Hall, located at 123 Roger Smith Ave. Guess what? If you attend in person, breakfast will be waiting for you!
All Are Welcome!
While these classes are tailored specifically to meet the interests of local businesses, they are open to anyone wanting to learn. If you feel confident about branding already, you might opt out of the first class. But don’t worry, you can pick and choose which classes to attend based on your interests.
How to Register
Getting signed up is easy! Just head online to register for the classes that interest you. For the February 10 class, you can sign up at this link. If you want to attend in-person, please register through this link. And if you’re interested in the other classes, registration links will be available upon request.
A Community Endeavor
This wonderful initiative is made possible in part thanks to the Community Business Preservation grant awarded to the city in 2024. The grant application was submitted with help from six local businesses, demonstrating a true community effort to support one another. The funding has also been used to assist local businesses with much-needed infrastructure or business improvement funding.
Get Excited About Learning!
Helen West, a community and economic development specialist, is thrilled about the upcoming “Demystifying SEO” class and hopes many will take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to learn something new. Given the complexity of SEO, this session will prove incredibly valuable for businesses eager to enhance their online presence.
