November is traditionally the month that wedding businesses and venues invest in training and development to fine-tune their marketing ready to attract new enquiries during proposal season.
This year, conferences are all online. As employees are allowed to undertake training during furloughed hours and there is so little work to do, it is the ideal time to plan your own mini-training conference.
Our Business Blog and YouTube channel have a number of great resources for your team. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to get notifications when we upload more training videos.
