Vancouver Island Small Business Specialist helps Employment Experts get their message out
“Fewer than 30% of businesses feel they are connected with the changing needs of their customers.”
Vancouver Island Small Business and Communication specialist Clemens Rettich speaks at ASPECT (The Association of Service Providers for Employability and Career Training) at the 2011 “Evolve, Survive, Change” conference.
The 2001 ASPECT Conference, taking place in Vancouver on November 3rd & 4th brings together community-based trainers, community and government officials from across British Columbia. ASPECT members are leading experts in career training programs, employability, and job retention.
Clemens Rettich lives on Vancouver Island and is a business and communication specialist providing support for clients across Canada. Rettich helps businesses become more successful. He supports businesses in improving communication through branding, social media, and management practices.
For the ASPECT Conference, Rettich will be speaking to delegates about best practices in communication that allow economic development teams to build thriving networks in tough times.
Rettich says “Do you want to connect with someone that can make a difference in your business or community? Find out what keeps them up and night, address that, and you’ll have their attention.”
Rettich is an advocate of developing effective social marketing tactics: “Listening skills, networking skills, religious follow-up, social media channels, knowing your CRM software, all are key to surviving in today’s business environment, but few businesses are using them effectively.”
Mr. Rettich is looking forward to an exciting conference that will influence the economic health of our communities. ASPECT is at the forefront of provincial organizations rethinking issues of employment, careers, and small business training.
