Chinese New Year & Valentine's Day Special

Quick Start :

for Beginners

Duration : 1 hour 45 minutes

In 2009, social media technologies such as Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook gained popularity in the business world. Why? Because these tools enable individuals, businesses and organisations to build upon real life connections and interactions, to connect online and share information.  Additional benefits include improve search engine optimisation and page ranking, increased web site traffic and better client relations.

In any organisation, you will meet colleagues & clients, share information and discuss issues. You introduce people to one another, recommend people who have done good work for you and, in turn, have your work recommended by others.

Facebook is the most popular social networking site with no signs of slowing down as more businesses and organisations use it to connect and engage with their customers, employees or students. Facebook is also largely misunderstood in terms of how it can be used for marketing and communication. This powerful networking service is not just for individuals to keep in touch with friends. It's a very effective networking tool for non-profits, public organisations, and educations to create awareness and connect with their community.

We have teamed up with East Hull City Learning Centre in Hopewell Road, East Hull to provide two hands-on practical Facebook workshops to provide confidence and understanding on how to use this technology for your business or purpose.

Don't miss out on this fantastic Chinese New Year.
