Columbia, Mo., Feb. 15, 2013 – Facebook, Twitter and other social media garner more and more time and attention for business managers and their employees. Managers may wonder about the impact of social media – especially on business revenue.
A new webinar from the Better Business Bureau (BBB) will help businesses address these issues.
The Mid-Missouri Branch of your BBB has teamed up with Columbia-based business development expert Cathy Atkins of Sandler Training to present a webinar: “Social Media: Sales Tool or Time Waster?” The webinar will be presented live on Monday, Feb. 25 at 1 p.m. (CST). It can be accessed from any computer with an Internet browser and Internet connection.
This webinar is free for BBB Accredited Businesses and their employees. Businesses that are not currently BBB Accredited may join this live webinar for $20 per attendee. Individuals not affiliated with any business also may join the webinar for $20 per attendee.
“Many business managers wonder if the time spent on social media has a positive or negative impact on revenues -- or if the business is even doing the right things on social media to support sales goals,” said Mike Odneal, Mid-Missouri BBB branch manager. “This BBB webinar will address these issues and provide ideas and approaches that you can start using right away.”
