    Seminar: Why More Marketing Won't Get You More Clients: 

    The 3 hidden leaks in your pipeline, and the one mistake most business owners don't see

    Date: Thursday, October 22, 2026

    Where:  Virtual Seminar- Zoom - You will receive link 24 hours prior to event.

    Time:  8am-9am

    Cost: Chamber members FREE, Non-members $15.00, Students $5.00


    Seminar Description:

    You're posting. You're networking. You may have even tried ads. And still, new clients arrive in unpredictable waves, and the effort is starting to wear you down.

    Most advice says to do more: post more often, try another platform, boost another post. In this session, marketing and brand strategist Puja Misra shows why doing more is often what keeps your pipeline empty, and what to focus on instead.

    It's for business owners who are showing up and working hard, and are ready for their marketing to finally work as hard as they do. If you want to finish Q4 strong and walk into the new year with a clear plan instead of another guess, this is the session to attend.


    Key Takeaways:

    1. Why posting consistently can lead to burnout and no sales, and what has to come first

    2. The reason ads feel expensive for some businesses and profitable for others

    3. Where your clients are quietly slipping away, and how to find your biggest leak in two minutes
