"Twice Leeton Connect had the opportunity to host “EmPOWER Your Mission” workshops here in Leeton NSW for our local organisations and charities. The first one was so popular we had to organise a second one! Presenter Scott Lockie did a fantastic job presenting the material using humour, great training materials, powerful online resources, rich multimedia components and real-life examples that captivated the audience. Everyone gained valuable tips and learned about the latest digital research, insights, trends, free resources and tools to support their individual organisations. As well we were introduced to an array of innovative marketing and fundraising strategies."
