Marketing On The Playground gave me the opportunity to explore marketing my business with perspective, through that came my passions, strengths and creativity. Wherever you are in your business this workshop will help you explore possibilities in creative and concrete ways. You will leave with a new perspective on marketing your business as well as a action plan.

www.selmasspirit.comI learned that it is reasonable for me to ask for help when I need it. I tend to believe that if I don't do it myself, it won't get done just right…when the important thing is that I do something!
The playshop is the genuine article. It's all about serious play and taking positive action. I recommend the playshop for anyone with passion and for what they want in life.

I recently attended Beth's Playshop. I've never had anyone to brainstorm with on my business (other than my husband), so it was really great to have several people pick up on my strengths and throw out ideas for me - it really got me thinking in new directions!Jean Hanson

I used Beth's Play Shop to learn what I want to be when I grow up. As I was going over the results with a friend, he paused for a moment....and suggested we become business partners!! Guess I'm in danger of becoming focused!Kay Roseland
State of MinnesotaI attended Beth's workshop hoping for some new ideas about expanding my market place. With the help of the group I was able to think outside the box and discover some new markets for my products.

To my great delight, I quickly learned that "play" could, indeed, be brought back into the plan to expand my service to a larger number of clients. The exercises and brainstorming focused on my strengths and the possibilities they offered me; the community of participants provided me with specific avenues to explore. The wealth of information suddenly available to me seemed limitless.
I heartily recommend "Marketing on the Playground" to rookie entrepreneurs and business veterans alike; everyone will benefit from this insightful call to "raise the bar" for yourself gently, easily and with a sense of pride.

HRxParticipating in the Marketing Playshop has resulted in a major shift in my attitude toward marketing my business. By exploring marketing ideas that fit my own personal style, the need to promote my business no longer feels like an ever-present "black cloud."
The Playshop group helped me come up with a strategy I am excited about and allows me to be myself. Meeting other small-business owners in a comfortable setting has also created new networking opportunities for me.

Comments
for the Playshops We were able to learn how to deal with the challenges in beginning your own business; particularly relevant was how you overcame your fear of marketing and needing to promote your product (self).
Our participants felt reinforced by your messages to identify what it is we want and what we need, and evaluating what gives or takes away our energy.
Many of our people would like to have you return as a guest speaker. I hope you can come back again for a similar presentation in the near future.

Beth is an insightful and fun speaker. When she spoke to my group of fellow lawyers, she had us laughing and saying "ah ha!" throughout the hour. Even in our short time together, I sensed everyone walked out with a renewed belief in themselves as marketers of their businesses, and some fresh ideas about how to attack their own marketing fears.
Thanks again for speaking. You were great!Heidi Pliam
