Inbound marketing

Using Social Media to Promote Your Business

Following MSM09 on Tuesday last week – I was up early on Weds to give a half-day seminar on “Using Social Media to Promote Your Business”, held at the brand shiny new University Campus Suffolk in Ipswich. Around 60 business people crammed into the room to participate in a really fun, interactive session. We had several complete newbies who left the room completely enthused – which is always a huge buzz.

I covered the following key questions and issues:

  • What is social media marketing?
  • What is inbound marketing? (And why does it matter so much?)
  • How blogging works
  • How Twitter works
  • How to use Facebook and Linkedin to promote your business
  • How to use photos, videos, articles and presentations to promote your business

If you’re interested in attending I’ll be running the session again in Southend on March 9th next year.

Here’s my presentation from the day (slideshare has innovated somewhat with the fonts!).
