I am planning on doing this by hosting a variety of forums, workshops and seminars in one of the most active regions in the world — the empire state. Advocacy for diversity and inclusion is an important tool to change this, as we begin to communicate this issue on a local and national level.

Video tours are “more like attending a seminar at a university where you hear someone speak and at the end there’s a Q&A,” Oddo said. The company The Tour Guy has also made the switch to virtual tours hosted by local guides. For live video to succeed, it has to offer something consumers can’t get anywhere else.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the travails of charging a Chevrolet Bolt EV to get back and forth to the annual CAR Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI.

Instead do a talk or seminar with an expert, invite journalists or the public to it to understand a bit more. However the main focus should still be on the local, surrounding newspapers and online publications. Do more than just link the awareness day and your client – go bigger.

The concept is simple: for a small fee, the dojo provides a place to serve pizza and birthday cake, and then the karate instructor takes a dozen or so kids attending the party through a karate seminar. During a recent visit to a local range, I noticed the book on the counter for $24.99.

Perhaps your company’s diesel serves as fuel for the light construction equipment that’s building a local nature trail.
