In this economy, businesses small and large are striving to pull ahead of the crowd – to be heard above the cacophony in the marketplace.
Social Media (ie: Blogs, Facebook,You Tube, Twitter, Flikr, etc) are unique platforms to engage your target audience and create the kind of viral buzz that can make or break your business. These days, consumers want to do business with people they know and trust. And we can effectively forge these relationships, without breaking the bank, using Social Media.
The “Talk of the Town” Workshop Series will delve extensively into each mode of social media, and include knowledgeable speakers as well as peer coaching. We will come alongside you as you navigate the world of new media and customize it to suit your needs.
Sarah Pinnix, the Organizer of the “Talk of the Town” Series, is founder of Real Life Media and High Country Mom Squad, as well as co-Founder of WiiMommies.com. Sarah is currently host of the interactive WebTV show “Get Real,” and co-host of the Wii Mommies internet radio show.
