You know that having an online presence for your small business is important, but are you sure you’re using all the resources available on the internet to realize your fullest potential? If you are not sure, then plan on attending the Get Your Business Online workshop at the Birmingham Public Library’s (BPL) Central location on April 17, 2018. The workshop will be taught by IT and marketing specialists from Zeekee, a local digital marketing firm. The workshop is sponsored by Zeekee, the City of Birmingham’s Office of Economic Development, SCORE, and the Birmingham Public Library.

This hands-on workshop will cover three things you can do right now to grow your business online. Sure, you want to be found by local customers and show up on local searches, but don’t you also want to be found everywhere, on all devices? This workshop will show you how. You’ll also learn about email and social media marketing, getting the most out of your Google listing, and tips and tricks for getting customers to notice you now, plus much more.

When they fully adopt digital tools, small businesses are much more likely to reach new markets and new customers. Yet, less than 20% of small businesses in Alabama have a listing on a search engine. Don’t let your small business be one of these!

The workshop is free to all small business owners, but registration is required. Space is limited. To complete the registration form, please click here.
