Marketing Entrepreneur Serves as Guest Lecturer to Entrepreneurship Students at Kent State
HUDSON, OHIO (October 13, 2009) –Chris Brown, president of Marketing Resources & Results, will share her personal entrepreneurship journey with the entrepreneurship students of Kent State University on October 26, 2009. Brown will describe what she learned when she started a full service marketing agency and how they can leverage her experiences to better help themselves launch their own business.
“When students graduate from college they are faced with many career paths and challenges,” explained Brown. “It is important for students to recognize their potential career choices don’t have to be working for someone else. I believe that the entrepreneurs and the small businesses provide the future and these students will drive business growth in Northeastern Ohio.”
Brown is a graduate of Kent State University and volunteers regularly at Kent State. She has judged the Annual Spring Business Concept Competition where students compete to launch a business concept and the winner continues on to the regional LaunchTown entrepreneurship awards competition with seven other Ohio universities. In addition, she has judged the Team Business Concept during the Entrepreneurship Education Consortium during the Entrepreneurship Immersion Week. As a small business owner, Brown has also been a panelist and a guest speaker at the annual Entrepreneurship Extravaganza.
Her presentation, “First, Solve a Problem: How One Entrepreneur Started and Grew Her Marketing Firm” will take place in Kent State University’s Business Building in Room 210B on October 26, from 7-8:15pm. The presentation is open to students and invitees only.
