SCORE To Host Free Workshop on “Social Media Marketing Made Simple”

Learn How Social Media Can Grow Your Business

Keeping in touch is the most important element to building relationships that sustain and grow a business. The Internet has evolved into an amazing, low-cost, "right now" tool to communicate with your customers, clients, and prospects. But it is not just about websites and emails anymore. Social media has changed the playing field for reaching the masses, as well as giving them a way to respond.

Today's businesses need to be aware of all the avenues people are using to make buying decisions, and when it comes to social media, there are plenty of options. The most popular social media sites are Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, and users have different expectations from each one.
