Community Corner

Social Media Marketing for Businesses

(SMYRNA, GA) – The Smyrna Technology Initiative presents a free panel discussion on the topic of Social Media Marketing on Friday, March 7, 2014.  The program will be held in the Jonquil Room at the Smyrna Community Center (200 Village Green Cir) from 1:00-2:15 p.m.  If you are a small business owner or employee responsible for business development, this program is for you!

Social media for business today raises a lot of questions.  What are the right social channels for my business and industry?  How can I possibly find all the time to do it right, or pay someone else?  And either way, how can I see financial return?  Should I separate my business social persona from my personal expressions?

If you've had these questions, we'll address them in the Smyrna Technology Initiative panel discussion.  Our digital marketing and technology experts have the answers and will be covering these topics and your additional questions in this open discussion.  Do you know the most important strategies regarding social media and your business?  Get ready – you're about to.  We look forward to it!
