Event description

The rules of marketing have changed forever. A Yellow Pages advertisement no longer cuts it. Over 100 million Americans use a search engine every day to find everything from a long lost love to a tv repair man. Search engines dominate our lives whether we realize it or not and if we want our businesses to thrive, we have to be found.

Marketing has shifted focus considerably over the past few years. The ubiquity of high speed Internet, free WiFi, Low Cost Computers, Internet enabled Smart Phones and the effectiveness of search engines has totally changed the buying habits of modern customers. Niche markets have become mainstream, odd campaigns hit the big time, viral campaigns are rampant and Social Media is pulling it all together.

This workshop will show you how to integrate various technologies into a Social Media Marketing Strategy. You will realize why you should never pay for a Yellow Pages Ad again when a well written blog with a series of comments from happy customers is both FREE and a whole lot more effective. The business owner has to, as never before, think like his customer. What is the customer searching for, where is he searching, how is he making his buying decision and what are his existing customers saying about him.

    Sorry for last minute bail out. I really wanted to attend, but I am in a meeting with a client that is running long. I will look forward to next time.

    Thanks to WOW for hosting such a great event. I have not gotten this excited about anything since Ebay. That was over 15 years ago and now to have this available knowledge of word press and to share it so freely and to explain it so easily to the crowd is a talent. The smiles on their faces also shows how much they enjoy sharing too.
    They always answer questions and yet never get off track.

    What a great event! I had no idea how much open source software there was and how wonderful to have such an expert on the subject teach the class. I highly recommend attending any of Christine's seminars. I'm taking her Word Press class on the 28th and CAN'T WAIT!!
