LinkedIn 2.0 a Success

2015-08 BEB TX Marketing for Small Business LinkedIn ClassOnce again we had an outstanding group of entrepreneurs and partners attending our LinkedIn 2.0 Seminar. As with the other social platforms, LinkedIn is rapidly changing and offers a very robust environment for your business.

We defined the difference between sharing an update and publishing a post, outlined the anatomy of a company page, and reviewed what to post and how to measure.  This was an incredibly interactive class (which is why we keep the maximum number of students to 15).   Next week wraps up our Summer Seminar Series, with Twitter 2.0.

Inaugural Intermediate Classes Take Off

2015-08-20 Marketing for Small Business 2.0 classWe had a full house for our inaugural Marketing for Small Business Intermediate Classes last week.  Facebook 2.0 started off this 3-part series, and covers many of the recent changes within the Facebook platform.

If you’ve noticed that your reach isn’t as strong as it once was; you’ll want to attend this class!  If you continue to market on Facebook the way “you always have”, you’ll continue to see that downward trend.

And special thanks to the amazing crew of Glenwood Weber Design for your fantastic testimonial! Every employee of Glenwood Weber Design has attended our Marketing for Small Business Classes!
