Michael Tate, international media consultant and speaker, is scheduled to deliver two seminars, exclusively for business people in the Ketchikan area. The sessions will highlight the most common mistakes businesses large and small make in promotion of their businesses. Mr Tate will also discuss ways to get the most out of any media campaign and conduct a workshop on the very best ways small to medium-sized businesses can construct professional and effective advertising plans, no matter what media they choose, regardless of their industry, but especially if they are working with an extremely limited advertising budget. Blake Messer, General Manager of KTKN & Gateway 106.7 said, "As providers of Ketchikan radio we know how important it is for local business to prosper if our community is to continue to prosper. We are very pleased to be able to provide someone of such an international standard to speak here in Ketchikan free. Michael Tate is regarded very highly in the advertising industry and I can promise that he will deliver some extremely worthwhile, yet simple advice to businesses, whatever their size, product or service. The fact that these seminars will be free of charge to local businesses is very exciting. This is a rare opportunity indeed."
