Tune in Saturday, May 30 @ 11 am to hear Ira speak with
MEGHAN LYNCH OF SIX POINT CREATIVE and

how to deliver that message? How their work together is the sync up of
finding your best positioning and how that gets communicated; and how
the benefits of their aligning are a bonus, and makes it look like you’re
working with a much larger firm (the good part of that).
