Social Media Made Easy
Presented by Yvonne Urness, owner of YouConnected (http://you-connected.com).

Are you overwhelmed by all the social media choices out there? Are you afraid social media will take up too much of the valuable time? Do you want to leverage social media but not sure which outlets are most effective for your business needs?

Social media is all the buzz right now because it has quickly moved from being a "social activity" to being an effective business tool for promoting your products and services, meeting people who were previously "out of reach," and connecting with prospects and clients. We know referrals are the best way to get new business and social media makes that happen easier and faster than any other time in history. The new business paradigm is all about interactive communication.

In this dynamic presentation, you will learn:
* Which social media outlets to start using immediately
* How to quickly create a presence in each of the "Big Three"
* Why it's important to create different profiles for each outlet
* What to include in your profiles (what not to include!)
* Who to follow, "friend", and include in your list of connections
* How a social media strategy will save you time while increasing your effectiveness
* Tips and resources on how to maintain your social media presence quickly and easily

Yvonne Urness is a social media strategist and relationship marketing professional who helps small and medium sized business stay relevant in today's rapidly changing business climate by integrating social media into their existing marketing efforts.
