Small Business and Technology Development Center to Host Social Media Workshop in Batesville

Arkansas State University Small Business and Technology
Development Center and the Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce will host
a marketing workshop for small businesses in Batesville, Wednesday, May
19, at the Batesville Chamber of Commerce conference room from 1-4 p.m.

"Five Small Business Strategies for Social Media" workshop will
be conducted by Herb Lawrence, ASU SBTDC Center Director.
"Thousands of small businesses and non-profit organizations are
finding the power of social media and inbound marketing to be an
amazingly cost-effective way to build relationships online 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 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 on-line who are searching
for information about small business products and services. No
technical expertise is needed.

Cost is $35 per person ($25 for Batesville Area Chamber members
and $20 for University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville
faculty, staff and students).
