BCCC’s Business and Industry Services offers a seminar that will help business owners stay in touch with their customers via Facebook. The seminar, Increasing Customer Connections with Facebook, will be conducted from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday at the Washington County Cooperative Extension Service 0ffice.
With more than 500 million Facebook users — 50 percent of whom check in with friends once a day — business owners can gain a competitive advantage with a minimum investment of time by using Facebook. The seminar will help participants increase their exposure on the Internet by creating a strong Facebook presence. They will learn how to avoid damaging their reputations by inappropriate use of Facebook.
The instructor for the seminar is Martin Brossman, a success coach, speaker, trainer and author. Brossman has offered training since 2006 to small-business centers and chambers of commerce throughout the state. He is the author of “Brossman’s Social Media and Online Resource Directory for Business.”
The seminar is co-sponsored by the Washington County Chamber of Commerce. It is offered free of charge, but preregistration is encouraged to ensure placement.
