Business Smarts: Chapter 2 ~ Using the Right Images

Business Smarts Breakfast sessions are held on the 2nd Friday of every month with networking opportunities and guest presentations on a variety of topics. The 2014 Business Smart Series will focus on telling your small business story. Join us over the course of the year as our guest speakers discuss the methods, media and successes of connecting with your customers through the telling of your unique story; from Once Upon Time to Happily Ever After. March's Topic: Chapter 2 ~ Using the Right Images In our sometimes chaotic world, words alone may not be enough to grab attention and engage your audience. Learn how to add visual impact to your message by using just the right colors, fonts, and images. Whether for logos, brochures, signs, or websites, discover the art and science of finding the most effective mix of images and words to tell your unique and authentic story. Presenter Jean "Jaye" Brumfield is the creative force behind The Hatchery Design Company where she has been helping her clients tell their stories for over a dozen years. She has honed her graphic design skills for almost 20 years and in such varied environments as a small private college, a state university, a Big Five accounting firm, a big city advertising agency, and now her own business. She also practices her presenting skills as a part time faculty member at James Madison University, teaching that the purpose of graphic design is communication. The series is sponsored by your Shenandoah Valley Small Business Development Center, the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Chamber of Commerce, and the Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE).
