QuickStart Shoreline resumes Tuesday

We are thrilled to kick off our 5th year of QuickStart Shoreline with a special 2 part workshop by Tracey Warren of Ready Set Grow Marketing!

Tracey Warren

Tracey has attended QuickStart Shoreline since its first workshop and, with the help of many of the initial participants, formed her business, Ready Set, Grow Marketing, to meet the demand she saw of other business owners who were experimenting with Social Media and needed some expert guidance.

The founding of Ready Set Grow Marketing has resulted in speaking engagements with dozens of business organizations (including more than 10 QuickStart workshops) an Adjunct Professor role at Shoreline Community College, the publishing of her first book and in invitation to join the National Speakers Association as incoming President for our local chapter.  

"I'm excited to be able to continue to participate and to give back to the QuickStart Shoreline program which has been an invaluable resource to me as I conceptualized, formed and continue to grow my business. I have made valuable personal and business connections, I’ve learned a great deal about business and I’ve been given a stage to develop my craft.  I look forward to watching this unique program continue to grow over the years.”
