Marketing on a Budget

Building a business doesn't require a massive ad budget—it takes the right strategy. In this practical workshop at Mount Dennis Library, serial entrepreneur and business mentor Vivian Kaye shares actionable advice on how to grow your brand through organic social media, word of mouth, and community partnerships without burning out.

Vivian is best known for bootstrapping KinkyCurlyYaki into a seven-figure brand without outside funding. Over her 15-year career, she has mentored hundreds of entrepreneurs, facilitated workshops for Humber College and FoundHers Innovation Labs, and partnered with industry giants like Shopify and Amazon. Her no-nonsense, direct approach is especially geared toward early-stage entrepreneurs looking to build sustainable businesses.
