SCORE is a nonprofit organization with over 400 chapters and 11,000 volunteers nationwide that provides free business mentoring and resources to existing and emerging small businesses. Keith Kaplan presented on branding, marketing, and digital strategy in the current digital age. Effective branding identifies a business and differentiates it from competitors, while marketing teaches consumers why they should choose a product over others. Digital strategy involves using tools like websites, social media, paid search, and email marketing to reach customers. Business owners must be ready to change their approach as disruptive new technologies emerge. SCORE offers ongoing workshops and free one-on-one counseling to help businesses succeed.

10. What is the Digital Age?
The information age, also commonly known as the
computer age or information era, is an idea that the
current age will be characterized by the ability of
individuals to transfer information freely, and to have
instant access to knowledge that would have been
difficult or impossible to find previously. The idea is
linked to the concept of a digital age or digital
revolution, and carries the ramifications of a shift from
traditional industry that the industrial revolution
brought through industrialization, to an economy
based on the manipulation of information.

13. Find What is Best and Then be Ready to Change It?
There is no one way that is best for your business and a
term that is important to remember is Disruption.
Much of our behavioryours, mineeveryones, follows
well trodden patterns and habits. We drive on one side of
the road, we watch our favorite TV show, we take the
elevator at workDisruption is anything that interrupts
these patterns and makes us stop, even for the briefest
moment and think consciously about what were doing. To
reconsider our pattern of behavior.
