This is one of my favorite luncheons for great business networking, delicious food, and amazing speakers.

Be there! 🙂

Social Media for the Time Starved:

Learn the fastest and simplest best practices for creating a company social media strategy that can be executed in 3, 5, or 10 minutes per day.

At this presentation you’ll learn how-to create your own Social Media Strategy Playbook to socially engage your customers and prospects more effectively, hit your target markets more precisely and fill in some of those foundational knowledge gaps you might have missed along the way. You’ll walk away with skills you can implement immediately.
