Event:

Join Northumbria University, Say Consultancy, Harlands and The Institute of Directors at our very successful interactive, informative and practical social media workshop that will equip you with the necessary information and resources to set up and successfully run social media that will benefit your business.

The workshop will cover the role of social media to build your business relationships and increase your marketing capacity. We will explore and explode myths surrounding social media and look at the business benefits that can come from having a social media policy within your organisation.

We will look at launching a social media platform that can co-ordinate and time manage your LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and Blogs.  We will look at using your web site as a key tool in marketing your business and how your social media sites can drive more traffic to that.

Through practical demonstrations, full explanation of the potential of each piece of software and actual case studies, you will get the opportunity with support to set up your own social media platform and all accounts that you feel will be beneficial to your business.

We will look at analysing and using data to target specific markets and to help enhance marketing campaigns to both enhance and build your business contacts.

When you leave the workshop you will have a practical working knowledge of the capability of social media and the relevant tools for your business.  You will also have the resources to begin planning your own social media marketing campaign to meet your business needs.
