About this user
Whether you're a leader of an association, a college/university administrator, or a private provider of events, you will leave a 'Ralph Elliott' conversation with a battery of ideas and very specific ways to get more customers while holding on to the customers you have.
You will get simple, but effective, techniques that will build trust in your organization, remove obstacles to registration and court fence-sitters to attend your events. Ralph's philosophy and his practical advice slogan are one in the same....You Will Learn How to Pack the House without Breaking the Bank!
You will find Ralph to be a dynamic seminar leader, having received rave reviews at more than 200 presentations around the world. Internationally, he has presented marketing seminars in Oxford, England; Kaohsiung, Taiwan; Belfast, Northern Ireland; Brisbane, Australia; Dubai, UAE; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Sofia, Bulgaria; and Auckland, New Zealand, to name a few.
Clemson University established the Dr. Ralph Elliott Endowed Award for outstanding service to Off-Campus, Distance and Continuing Education. The annual award recognizes and honors a Clemson University faculty, staff, and/or administrator who has contributed to the field of credit or non-credit in a worthy and an exemplary manner.
You can capitalize on his years of practical experience at Clemson University. At Clemson, Ralph was Director of Professional Development, Associate Dean for Executive Education, and Vice Provost for Off-Campus, Distance and Continuing Education. At the same time, he worked through the academic ranks... from Assistant to Associate and on to full Professor of Economics. He received tenure after only four years... a feat accomplished by few.
Learn from him how he led the growth of the continuing education program from $70,000USD to a multi-million dollar program serving over 20,000 adult learners. Use his years of practical, hands-on experience to your advantage. Let him tell you how he developed, marketed and presented literally thousands of seminar/conference programs.
With Ralph on your side, you have a team member who continues to provide advice and leadership. He continues to serve as Chairman of the Board for the Clemson University PACE Advancement Board. He is on the Board of Visitors for the University Center of Greenville... having previously served as Chairman of the Board for the Center. Ralph is also Founder and Executive Director of the Effective Seminar Marketing Institute (LLC)... a group which helps organizations build attendance at events. Elliott also serves on the Editorial Review Board of the Journal of Executive Education.
You can feel secure in trusting Ralph with your marketing concerns. Contrary to many people who call themselves consultants, Ralph has the academic credentials to back-up his promises to you. Ralph holds a Ph.D. in economics from North Carolina State University. As a Professor of Economics at Clemson, his 70 publications include a best-selling database monograph and the classic "Effective Marketing and Selling of In-House Programs."
