Creative Ways to Generate Income
For many organisations, the prospect of trading is appealing. Earning a commercial income from the sale of products or services can mean the end of having to rely solely on funding for money.
But how do you develop a product? Will it conflict with your charitable aims? And even if we manage to come up with an idea, how will we market it?
This course will start you on the right path. You will learn how to generate ideas for a product or service, how to find an outlet for it and how to attract clients. It will mean a lot of hard work when delegates return to their organisations but the rewards will make it worthwhile
