The Veterinary Marketing Association is running a free seminar on Thursday 24^th November from 5-7pm for any delegates of the London Vet Show, or those in the vicinity, that feel they'd like to learn about the principles of marketing.

The VMA says that in today's competitive environment, the key to success for a veterinary business is often making oneself heard and standing out above the competition, but questions how many vets are taught any marketing at college or whether marketing is something that most vets just pick up over time?

The VMA's Principles of Marketing seminar will aim to address the basics in marketing, with an emphasis on the veterinary sector. It's taking place at the Hilton Hotel, London Olympia, a few minutes walk from the show.

The VMA has enlisted the services of Paul Fifield (Visiting Professor in Marketing Strategy at the Southampton University School of Management) to deliver the seminar.

This event is open to anyone and entry is free. As spaces are limited to a maximum of 60, registration is strongly advisable. For more information, or to register, please visit the VMA's website - http://www.vma.org.uk/.

The seminar will be followed by a free buffet and time for questions.
