On January 30, join us at Rae & Jerry’s for our first Brews & News of 2019!
Grab a beverage, a bite to eat and join our conversation on brand perception – the good, the bad and everything in between! Mary Agnes Welch, principal at Probe Research Inc. and former Winnipeg Free Press journalist, will guide an engaging conversation on what happens when your brand takes a turn for the good or the bad in the court of public perception. Bring your best examples and we’ll let the discussion begin.
