Exclusive Offer: Local University On Internet Marketing

Friday, March 5th, 2010

I’m excited about an Internet marketing workshop that is coming to town and have an exclusive discount just for Small Business Mavericks readers. The workshop is called Local University and will be presented by GetListed.org.

The workshop is for local Twin Cities business owners and will be held at Westin Edina Galleria on May 13, 2010. You’ll have your choice between a morning (8 a.m. to noon) and an afternoon (1 p.m. to 5 p.m.) session. The sessions are identical.

There is room only for 200 participants so you’ll want to get your seat early. But the agenda is awesome!

Minnesota business owner and SEO expert will discuss the basics on search engines and representatives from both Bing and Google will be on hand to give their own presentations. Also, Internet marketing veterans Matt McGee and Mike Blumenthal will have their own insights to share.

The cost for the workshop is only $129, which is a huge value in itself, but if you are a reader of Small Business Mavericks then you can get a $40 discount. Your coupon code is smbmavericks. Enter the coupon code, choose a session (morning or afternoon) and learn all you can about Internet marketing from Local University. To sign up for Local University, click here.

New Year, New Social Media Opportunities

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

If you`ve been following this blog for any amount of time or if you have ever attended one of my live workshops, you`ll know that I`m a fan of social media, LinkedIn in particular. There`s a very good reason for this . . . it works.

The problem that many people face, however, is not knowing what to do once they have signed up for LinkedIn. Are you in the same boat?

This social media site can be very powerful and really enhance your business if you use it properly, but if you`re stuck at the first step, it won`t work. That`s why I`m going to be offering my very first workshop of 2009 on this very topic. In fact, here`s what we`ll be covering:

  • What LinkedIn is and why you should care
  • How to network on LinkedIn
  • The essentials of creating a power-packed profile that shows up in the LinkedIn search results
  • How to use LinkedIn to find new clients or customers and grow your sales

How to Attend:
Cost: $50

Location:

BlueChip Advisors, LLC

8441 Wayzata Blvd.

Suite 200

Minneapolis, MN 55426

You Need More Social Networking Skills

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

Everyone in business could use more online networking. It`s something that can really work to boost your business. If you`re interested in increasing the visitors to your website, then you need to get involved with social media.

Not sure how to do that? Well, thankfully, this is one of my specialties, so I`ve put together a workshop that focuses specifically on this area. My upcoming workshop on December 9th will show you how to use social page sites to make your very own web pages, use Flickr and YouTube to bring in traffic and how to build your very own free social networking site.

We`ll be working on these social networking skills at the Byerly’s Community Center, Ridgedale from 6-8:30 pm on Dec. 9th. The cost is just $50 and you can register at this website.

P.S. If you`re interested in my interview on BlogTalkRadio, it went live yesterday and you can now listen in! Just click here to hear it.

Social Media: Learning the Ins and Outs

Friday, November 7th, 2008

Social media is something I talk about a lot because it`s an important part of promoting your business. You can easily network with hundreds, if not thousands, of people all at once with social networking.

I`ve talked before about signing up for LinkedIn, but many readers have written in, wanting to know what they should do now that they`ve signed up. This is a common problem, not knowing how to actually get started in social media. So, I`ll be holding a Workshop mini-series to help anyone interested in social networking learn to do it well.

You`ll get the training that will enable you to move forward in your online business promotion and also written materials to allow you to train others to promote your business, as well. You can register to attend here. Or call 888.712.0075

Cost: $50
Where: Byerlys Community Center Ridgedale, 3081 Ridgedale Drive, Minnetonka, MN 55305
When: November 11th, 6:00 – 8:30 p.m.

Hope to see you there!
