Twitter 101

Twitter and Facebook can be powerful, cost effective tools to start a dialog with your consumers that will create a positive buzz and increase sales.

If you're interested in building your brand’s reputation and social media presence, these workshops are for you!  In September, we'll host our Twitter 101 class and Facebook 101 will follow in October

In this valuable session, you learn to:

• Set-up or overhaul your profile to attract the right people
• Discuss the correct voice for your brand -- sometimes friendly banter is great, other times it isn't
• Search for potential customers or prospects
• Creat a custom twitter background
• Start conversations and bond with people interested in your product and services
• Develop a loyal following 
• Create a presence that will build your network online and develop valuable relationships offline
• And more...

This will be a very interactive seminar. Please bring your laptop as we will actually look at real time examples and set-up your accounts during the session.

Live networking!

After the session, we'll go down to the Met Club and have a drink and appeitzers compliments of the Met Club so we can network live.
