Speaker: John Addessi, Kansas Small Business Development Center
Eric Qualman once said, “The ROI of Social Media is Your Business Will Still Exist in 5 Years.” The statistics are compelling; for example, Facebook alone has 2 billion + active members. Businesses get that they need to be on social media. But where? What to post? When? Many business owners are stymied into inaction. By stepping back from your core products and services just a bit, you can quickly see that you have a LOT to share with your existing and prospective customers, and utilizing some simple tools and concepts will make you look like a pro – and get that cash register or phone ringing.
