Connection Over Convenience: How to Make Your Connection with Customers More Valuable Than Convenient

Published in Member Communities on November 12, 2020

Today, we sit down with Christina Throndson, Business Development Strategist of Hellman, a division of VGM. COVID-19 is a hot topic, but how can it not be? It's the reason we've all been forced to change our lifestyle for many months. While your target audiences may not have changed, their behaviors and expectations have. As we begin to carefully approach "living as usual,” Christina chats with us about what methods of adaptation are necessary to capture and connect with our customers and prospects.
