Facebook- Intermediate: Facebook for your Business

The Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce is happy to announce their Social Media Workshops, sponsored by Holiday Inn Express and Suites, are ready and set for business professionals and owners. Whether you are the business owner or you send your manager, these workshops will make it easier for consumers to find your business, increase brand recognition, create brand ambassadors, show you care about your business by being there and being ready to have meaningful conversations with consumers about your brand and their needs and expectations. With half of the world’s population under 30 years old and technology and social media being engrained in their everyday functions, it is necessary for businesses to embrace and take social media serious.

Intermediate: Facebook For your Business is the class for businesses who have grasped the basics, understand how to use Facebook and much of its features but are looking for a leg up on marketing. This workshop will focus on the Insights and Analytics of your audience and what that means. Also, we will look at how to implement apps on a Facebook Page and use their ad feature to increase awareness on a budget. This class is scheduled for Thursday, June 7^th, from 8:30AM-11AM.

The Chamber’s workshops were created to help your social media strategy on every level. These workshops will be 100% interactive where participants will be asked to bring their laptop with various materials ready go on it so specific tasks can be accomplished during the workshops. Also, to help the participants get the most out of the workshops they will be kept to a 12 person maximum so personalized help will be achieved.

Cost of each workshop is $35 for Chamber Members and $40 for Non-Chamber Members. If one class fills up and you are not able to register, please contact the Chamber and more classes will be held until the community’s needs are satisfied. All classes are held in the Meeting Room of the Holiday Inn Express and Suites located next to Sweet Lou’s in Ponderay, 477326 U.S. 95.
