Webinars: More than a Meeting

Armando and I recently gave a seminar at a local coffee shop, Urban Dog (sponsored by Administaff) , on the topic of leveraging social media.

It is an excellent way to communicate and build a rapport with our current customers, add credibility to the company and keep our name in front of our target audiences. When preparing for this seminar, I was simultaneously preparing for a webinar for church leadership. While the seminar at Urban Dog may have encouraged a high level of involvement from the audience, webinars share many of the same benefits as live seminars at a much lower cost and a much greater convenience.

America is made up of all walks of life, and it has always taken a combination of different types people to make this country what it is today.

They Think They Know, but They Have No Idea…

Everyone who has not been living under a rock for the past few years knows about social networking. It is everywhere you look. From the creation of sites such as MySpace and Xanga, to the new king of the hill, Facebook, it’s pretty much impossible not to at least hear about social media.
