    Day 3 - was all about Marketing and Media. We kicked off the day with a peer to peer breakfast chat with Zboss Zoe Oli where she shared her story, insights from her journey and answered questions. Next up was our ads expert Stephanie Smith with a social media marketing workshop, where she shared best practices for maximizing both organic and paid media. Rachelle Kuramoto went next with a super interactive brand positioning workshop where she covered the handshake pitch and branding. Thank you both for your time and valuable content. The YMB Fuel crew practiced their pitches and connected with their mentors over yummy pizza, wings, salad and 2 cakes. We continued on with a PR workshop with Evana Oli and then walked across the hall to meet with Art Terrell at Smooth Jazz 101 who broke down best practices for interviews and then proceeded to record a radio interview with each youthpreneur. Thank you so much Greg Davis Davis Broadcasting Inc. for making this happen. We can’t wait to hear the interviews when they air. It was a good day @Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs #youthmeanbusiness #ymbfuel
