Seminar: Using Social Media to Effectively Grow Your Business
On Wednesday, December 2, we hosted a free business seminar in downtown Ladysmith for the business community hosted by the Ladysmith Downtown Business Association. It was a great success with over 40 attendees! Thank you to all who attended.
“Thank you for taking the time to explain and enlighten on the topic of social media. Your easy manner and obvious understanding of the topic made the evening fun and valuable. I now have a better understanding of the value of social media for Take 5 Publications.”

This seminar included:
- An overview of the more popular tools: Facebook, LinkedIn, Blogs, YouTube, Twitter
- Making the right choice which suits your business model and time limitations
- Tracking social media to see what works best for you
- How to integrate social media into your existing web presence
Watch for our next one in April.
