It’s nearly here! The fourth in our series of collaborative workshops will be held on June 25th at Paybase’s London office. This workshop will be all about marketing and PR. As platforms, it’s not a case of simply getting people to buy your product, you must market to both buyers and sellers. The platform cannot function without either, so getting that balanced approach right is vital to business success.

For this reason we’ve teamed up with GangHut, the marketing and PR agency created with platform businesses in mind. They will be offering expertise on how to best market your product and use PR to your advantage. Whilst this is the fourth in our series, you do not have to have attended any of our previous workshops for this to be relevant - we have a new theme for each event!

Below is a schedule of how the evening will unfold:

• 18:30 - 19:00: Arrival and Networking
• 19:00 - 19:25: Telling the world about your marketplace: Why marketing & PR for platforms is different - Elle Tucker, Gang Leader at Gang Hut
• 19:25 - 19:50: Case study - Hiyacar: Marketing & PR by Graeme Risby
• 19:50 - 20:10: Networking Break
• 20:10 - 20:35: Digital marketing techniques for platforms - Jessy Conflon, Head of Marketing at Paybase
• 20:35 - 21:00pm: Campaign development for platform businesses - Mike Monteith, Client Lead at GangHut
