Marketing changes so fast, it can be hard to keep up when you’re already trying to run a business. Who has time to sit in front of a computer all day, finding out what’s new in marketing?

We do! We get a rush of finding out what’s new and important so you don’t get left in the dust.

Whether it’s learning how to use social media effectively, brushing off your WordPress skills, or learning more about principles of marketing, we want to help you learn what’s important.  So we are carving out time for another round of our most popular seminars.   

Each one hour seminar is held from 4:00 - 5:00 pm so you can get your work done, and then finish off strong with one or all of our interactive sessions.

Space in each session is limited to 15 people, so if you can’t attend, please let us know so we can offer your seat to someone on our waiting list.  All of these sessions sold out when we offered them this winter, so you may want to reserve your space early. 

The response has been so good, we have added a few extra sessions.  Regster now!  They fill up fast

Course Descriptions: 

4/11/ or 4/18 - Pinterest:  Worth the Hype?  Pinterest is the latest social network taking the country by storm. The site acts as a visual bulletin board, letting you organize pictures, videos and and more. But what if any is the marketing application? Does your small business need to be using it? Come learn how to use this cutting-edge network, and discover how you might apply it to your own marketing mix. 

4/26 or 5/3  - 10 Tips for Better Websites  - No one designs a website to deliberately turn off clients, prospects, and search engines, but all too often that is the end result. In this intimate workshop, we will review the most common mistakes web designers and small business owners make.

The working session will include general tactics and a review of your website. We will evaluate navigation, copy, animation, pictures, page titles, keywords, and much more.

5/24 - Social Media Stew - Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn–from the outside, it can all seem like a confusing jumble. But social media is a critical marketing tool for keeping in touch with your current clients–and bringing in new ones. With social media, you can keep customers and potential customers informed, engaged, and educated about your company and your industry.

6/28 - Blogging Basics - Search engines are getting smarter every day.   Keywords and meta tags are no longer enough to drive traffic to the website for your small business.  Search engines are looking for real, relevant and timely content.  The best way to do that? Blogging. In this session we're offering a crash course on blogging strategies. We'll talk about why you should blog, what you should blog about and how to get the most bang for your buck from the blogging process.

7/26 - Random Strangers to Raving Fans -  People don’t become customers overnight. Typically they start out as random visitors to your website, or someone you bump into at a networking event. Helping those strangers get to know you is a process which involves sending the right messages at the right time.  We will look at how social media, web design, email marketing and old fashioned face to face all play a role in this process
