In two weeks:

Come along with Adam Herbig to go on the pricing and consulting journey for creatives.

Adam will break down practical, real‑world frameworks that help freelancers, agencies, and in‑house teams move beyond hourly billing and adopt value‑based pricing models that create stronger, more transparent partnerships.

This luncheon is built for both sides of the table: the creatives who must articulate their value and the communicators who must evaluate, justify, and secure those services for their organizations.

Thanks to Kris-Ann Carduff for sharing insights on "Every Employee an Influencer." Kris-Ann illustrated how an organization's reputation is impacted by every department – not merely marketing. Companies can make a greater impact when a practical strategy, embraced by leaders, helps employees to communicate the brand's message inside and outside the organization.
