Marketing for the Holidays with Email and Social Media

I know it's hard for a small business retailer to leave their store for a few hours in the middle of the week for a seminar. We promise that this will be something worth attending as we cover ways that you can use social media to prepare you and your customers for the upcoming holiday season.

Presenter, Marsha Pearson, will share time saving ways to plan and organize email and social media campaigns to help make the season painless. We'll show you some great online tools that you can use to make your hectic life easier.

We know what's important to you: cash in the till! Let's uncover some of the new ways that you can keep in touch with customers who care about you and what you have to say. You will also learn ways in which you can measure the success of your marketing plan.

No matter what business you are in, you will find useful information that will help you make the most of the holiday season.
