Social Media for Small Business: A Crash Course

 Presented by 

Sacramento Social Media Club

 

Sure, it’s easy for companies like Dell or JetBlue to have incredible case stories about how they’ve used social media to connect with customers and increase sales. But what about small businesses who are strapped for resources and cash? There is a way to make social media work for small business, but the road to success looks different than corporate strategy. Sacramento Social Media Club is proud to present our second workshop in 2010, exclusively for small business leaders.

This event is limited to 50 students, so please register early to guarantee your spot!

 

What to expect:

  • You’ll hear interesting case studies from three area small businesses that can understand your limitations, challenges and opportunities.
  • The course will specifically cover three tools: Facebook, Twitter and Yelp.
  • You’ll have the chance to ask questions about how these tools can impact your business. 

Presenters: 

  • Jared Thomas, of Thomas Chiropractic (@jaredthomas) will speak about using Twitter.
  • Korina Huizar, of Fleet Feet Sacramento, will speak about using Facebook. (http://www.facebook.com/FleetFeetSacramento)
  • Olivia Loy, Sacramento Yelp Community Manager, (@oliviamloy) will speak about how small businesses can utilize Yelp.

*Since our very first event in April of 2009 Sacramento Social Media Club has proudly provided the community with FREE panels and workshops. We've tried to bring you cutting edge topics, knowledgeable speakers, and great food and drinks. We've been able to do all this for free thanks to generous sponsors and individuals. But, as we grow, we need your help. At this event, we're asking for a very small $10 donation at the door to help us cover costs.
