How To Use Facebook Like A Pro: Facebook For Business
In our last workshop you asked for a second event about-- Facebook Marketing! Thanks for asking! Here you go! This workshop will be held at Green Path Herb School.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: Does your business shine online--or could your digital presence benefit from a boost? The media landscape is changing which means YOUR potential next customer will likely look you up online before they make personal contact with your business. What will they see? Establishing a kickass Facebook presence will not only help you retain current clients--it will help you attract prospective new clients, too.
In this workshop we will discuss how to best use Facebook marketing to benefit your business. And, we'll chat about how to create a social media strategy for YOUR company. Social media strategy is what brings your page to life. It will allow YOUR page to stand out from your competitors and connect with your target demographic. A social media strategy is a key element.
Did you know that not everyone who likes your page will see your posts? In fact, Facebook might only show your posts to between 2% and 4% of your total audience.
BUT WHY? Facebook has created algorithms and "best practices guidelines" that dicate how many people they'll show your post to--and under what circumstances they will do so. If your posts are structured according to their guidelines Facebook will reward you by showing your posts to more people. I'll discuss this in the workshop.
Just like in life, these best practices guidelines can change with very little notice. Meaning--the stuff you learned about Facebook last year may no longer be relevant.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Worthwhile information--Yea!!
This is an informal workshop where participants are encouraged to ask questions and join in the discussion. I will be sharing information with you. We will also spend time brainstorming how to apply these concepts to your specific business. Then, when you leave you will be emplowered to put your new skills to work immediately.
WHAT WILL WE COVER:
I will educate you on Facebook's best practices so that your posts are shown to the most people possible, how to create interesting content that YOUR target demographic wants to read, the basics of developing a Facebook strategy--and--I'll share with you tips that I use while I'm professionally managing Facebook pages for clients in our community.
COST: $35
EARLY BIRD PRICING: $29 if you register by Halloween.
Space is limited so please pre-register by emailing: erin@catalystmt.com or calling 406-885-6690.

Marketing Basics: How to Market Your Workshop, Class or Event
This is a workshop for folks who host events, workshops, classes or non-profit functions in Missoula. Maybe you're a yoga instructor, you host art events or you offer workshops.
It can be frustrating to put together an awesome class, and then only a couple people attend. In this workshop we'll cover the basics of marketing your special function, including how to identify your target demographic, how to craft a message that resonates with your target audience and then where to present your message (aka what mediums are best for marketing your specific event).
What To Expect:
Worthwhile information--Yea!!
I'll spend some time sharing information with you and then we'll jump in to a workshop format. Each participant will have the chance to workshop their specific cause so that you will leave feeling empowered to make your next event a success. You'll be prepared to identify your target demographic, how to craft a message that will appeal to them and you'll leave with ideas about how to best reach that audience.
Please bring a pen and paper to this event. (Or markers--however you best express yourself with writing.)
Offered By: Erin Eliz of Catalyst Communications.
