Join us for our May Luncheon

Wednesday, May 4th, 2011

Monthly Luncheon – Social Media and the Digital Age

Like it or not, the world today is becoming more and more dependent on the internet. More and more studies indicate that a lot of people make important decisions researching them first online.

Research also indicates that people depend on other people’s experiences to make decisions on products andservices. With the advent of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other such social media, information travels around the world much faster.

Social media can give you credibility to your online visibility (web presence), a better opportunity of being found through search, a premium avenue to provide customer service, and a cheap / effective marketing tool that will bring results if used consistently and correctly.

If you are hesitant to jump on to the internet and social media bandwagon, come find out why you should, or else you might find yourself alone on sidelines as potential customers pass you by on their way to your competitors.

Date: May 11th
Time: 12:00-1:30pm
Place: Sandy Fire Department Annex Bldg

RSVP TODAY

Speaker: Kelly Allen of Alphabetix
Catered by:Smoky Hearth
