I am excited to be teaching the upcoming marketing workshop that the Evergreen Chamber of Commerce is hosting and hope you can join me if you are interested in learning more about how to promote your business online! It happens on February 26th from 9:30-11:00am at the Evergreen Fire Rescue Admin Building and costs only $5 for Chamber members, $10 for non-members. We'll cover some local websites you can use to advertise, pros and cons of Facebook Business Pages and local Facebook groups, free versus paid advertising, key metrics to analyze, and how you can measure return on investment.
