Most people spend lots of time playing on social media each week. And they have fun. But it does NOTHING for their business.

This workshop was created when small business owners started saying “Being sheltered in place, I guess I have to take my social media marketing more seriously. Can you show me how?” 

To help them, and now you, we came up with a simple system of ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts’and will now share them with you.

You’ll get answers to the myths that have been holding you back from generating a following that leads to business, including        

- What platforms you should be on,        

- What to post and        

- What is your daily time commitment in order to succeed.        

If you’re an average user of social media for your business (C is an average grade, and these are the 10 Concepts) and now want to up your game, this workshop is for you.        

Come get answers to the questions you have always wanted to ask, like “How do I block those turkeys from high school from ?finding me?” (pictures of your lunch not included)

Instructors Hank and Sharyn Yuloff bring a unique perspective to their workshops. Hank has a 35+ year background in advertising and public relations; Sharyn is an online marketing and human resources expert.

Yuloff Creative Marketing Solutions, (www.YuloffCreative.com), is your small business coaching firm, offering both traditional and technology-based marketing plans. They have been called “a marketing incubator, helping small business owners create a marketing path, then guiding them along that road to success.”

Lunch will be provided. Space is limited and registration is required.
