Be Unforgettable: Emotional Marketing Mastery with 50x Award-Winning Marketer, Keka DasGupta

Do you want to have a speaker brand that people actively seek out, where you don’t have to “pitch” to prospects because they come to you first?

Do you want to create “talk value” around what you offer as a speaker, so decision-makers feel inspired to share your profile with other leaders, unprompted?

Do you want to your marketing to work harder for you, so you don’t have to do the nitty-gritty grind every day?

If you answered “yes” to any of the questions above, then this CAPS Toronto programming is not-to-be-missed. (And if you think your topic of expertise doesn’t call for emotional marketing, remember, EVERY decision we make as humans, no matter the category, is driven by our emotions.)

Keka’s marketing experience over 25 years includes work for such iconic brands as: Disney, Nike, American Express, Mercedes-Benz, IKEA, and Johnson & Johnson, alongside a host of entrepreneurs and small businesses just like yours.
