New Media Marketing Workshop November 19, 2008

Would having a website really help my business? How can my current website bring me MORE business? How do I use Twitter and Facebook to attract new clients? What is the benefit of blogging for business? Can I really build business relationships online?

A panel of experts will be presenting the information YOU need to get online marketing working in your favor. With more and more people searching for products and services online everyday, if you are not online, you are missing out! Come to this event to learn how to turn the tide in your favor. By utilizing websites, blogging, email marketing, social networking sites (and more!), you can spread the word and generate new business.

We have a terrific panel of experts lined up:
