Giving entrepreneurs the strategies they need and the motivation to keep going

Jennifer is a marketing advisor who launched her business following a career in professional golf. When pro golfers compete in a tournament, they don’t just show up on the first day and play.

Use this unique insight to be more competitive, find more opportunities and build the business you know is there.

Keynotes & Main Talks

Think Like a Pro: Use a pro golf strategy to drive results

Golf and business are great partners, whether you’re building client relationships, supporting a charity or hosting a social event. There’s one more place where the two merge: strategy.

When pro golfers compete in a tournament, they don’t just show up on the first day and play. They’ve studied the course and built a strategy for their unique strengths to use during competition. The same applies to marketing and growing your business. Learn the competitive strategies pro golfers use and how they can work for you.

Marketing to Recruit: Use marketing strategies to create a job ad that conveys what you need and attracts who you want

After attending a workforce development session where employers complained about being able to attract qualified candidates to their small town community, Jennifer Layman designed and launched the region’s first online job board as a solution. She made it easy for employers to use, offering to write the job ad for them, thereby ensuring she could elevate the marketing elements of the recruiting effort. The result? 17 years later, it remains the most referenced job board in the region, despite there being more than 25 other free options.

Jennifer has worked individually with employers to uplevel their hiring efforts through marketing strategies that target recruiting. The goal is to position your opportunity in the best possible way in order to attract the kind of candidate that can be successful with your organization. The goal is not just to hire, but to hire well. A strategy can help you achieve that.
