Webinar Description
How many of your customers know they are served by a public power utility and what that means for them? Do they know how you keep electricity affordable and reliable, while giving back to the community? It’s time to tell the public power story and win loyalty and trust from stakeholders so they’ll be on your side when competition and threats proliferate. Learn three basic tunes to toot your horn, with a suite of resources from the American Public Power Association. Invite your city coordinators or PIOs to join this free webinar so they’ll know how to get and share content for you.
This is the first webinar in the Raising Awareness of Public Power Webinar Series designed to help you raise awareness of public power in your community.
The webinar will take place from 2-3 pm Eastern.
