#AwarenessDays can show your personality – September 2019
This month I could have chosen the formal road with #WorldCancerFreeDay or #BusinessWomansDay, but deep down I believe that sharing a little of your own personality is key to attracting the right type of client. #AwarenessDays are the perfect way to step away from the dull and regular business promotions, and open up to your clients – show them a little of who you really are.
