Small Business and Technology Development Center to Offer Social Media Marketing Workshops May 13
May 11, 2010
The Arkansas State University Small Business and Technology
Development Center along with the Jonesboro Regional Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Jonesboro Association will hold a small businessmarketing workshop Thursday, May 13, in Room 106 of the Delta Center for Economic Development on the ASU campus.
     
The workshop, entitled "Five Small Business Strategies for Social
Media," will be conducted by Herb Lawrence, ASU SBTDC Center Director.
It will be offered twice from 1-4 p.m. and again from 6-9 p.m.
    
"Thousands of small businesses and non-profit organizations are
finding the power of social media and inbound marketing as an amazingly
cost-effective way to build relationships on-line that drive business
success," said Lawrence. "In today's challenging economic times this
cost advantage makes social media a very powerful tool for building any
business or organization.

"But, like anything else it has to be done right.  If you are
not sure where to begin with Twitter, Facebook, social bookmarking or
blogs or why you should even bother, then this seminar is for you."  
    
In this three-hour seminar, Lawrence will discuss low-cost ways
social media can bolster a business's current marketing effort,
determine which types of social media are the best fits for a business,
and how to connect with potential customers online who are searching for
information about small business products and services.  No technical
expertise is needed.
     
Registration is $35 per person ($25 for Chamber and Downtown
Jonesboro Association members and $20 for ASU faculty, staff and
students).  For more information or to register, contact the Arkansas
State University Small Business and Technology Development Center at
