This presentation will include:
• What social media marketing really is and why it’s important;
• Various social media networks and tools: how they interact, ways to leverage their strengths, and how to evaluate them for
best use for your business or organization;
• How other businesses are using these low-cost tools to gain visibility, develop relationships, and drive sales and engagement;
• How to incorporate social media marketing into your business life without losing productivity.
Participants will have plenty of time to ask questions, share experiences, and network with peers. And they’ll leave with real-
world insights and knowledge that they can put to work immediately, to help their business or organization succeed
