Port Augusta Business Workshop
Wednesday, 18th November 2026
6pm to 8:30pm
Port Augusta Business Centre, 2a Stirling Road
FREE

Most businesses don't have a marketing problem. They have a clarity, pathway, and follow-up problem. People can probably already find you. The real question is whether they quickly understand why they should choose you, and whether buying, booking, or enquiring is easy once they do.

This hands-on session with Steve Davis, Talked About Marketing walks through the five stages that actually put more money in the till.

Presented by Adelaide Business Hub, Regional Development Australia Far North, Business Port Augusta, and The Australian Government Digital Solutions program.

Spots are limited.
