Mari Peterson of Marketing Outpost will address the most common startup questions and pitfalls for anyone thinking about starting a business. As a SCORE mentor and marketing professional, Mari has consulted with many people who are thinking about or in the process of starting a business.

Starting a business requires many tasks and many of them are related to marketing – how to create your brand and promote your business. New owners are often inundated with suggestions and recommendations from friends, family, and the Internet. It can be overwhelming. I help entrepreneurs consider their choices, review their plans and goals and hopefully, help to avoid some very expensive and time consuming mistakes.
