Session 1: 2:30pm - 3:30pm
Constant Contact, Jeff Ferrazzo- Social Campaigns: Supercharging Your Facebook Marketing
It’s no secret that Facebook has become a huge part of how people interact with each other, share ideas and recommendations, and interact with the brands they like.  But too many businesses aren’t seeing results from their Facebook marketing efforts because they are posting content without a plan for turning “fans” into customers and advocates.

In this seminar, you’ll learn:

• Why Facebook is important to your business
• The difference between posting and marketing on Facebook
• Ten tips to drive more “likes,” more “shares,” and more business
   

Session 2: 3:30pm - 4:30pm

Make your business a priority and take this opportunity to expand your business to a larger, regional audience.
