Most small businesses are out here posting, networking, and running ads — but still not reaching the right people. Not because the business isn't good. Because the brand isn't clear.

In OCCUR's Community Wealth Lab, you'll build your brand from the ground up. Your voice. Your message. Your visual identity. All in one guide you'll leave with and actually use.

Six Thursday evenings. Starting April 30 at 5PM in Oakland.

$200 for all 6 weeks. Space is limited.

Tag someone who's been hustling but ready to get clear. 👇
