Turn Your Passion-2-Profit…experience entrepreneurial euphoria!

Birgit Pauli-Haack presenting at 4th Annual Turning Passion to Profit, Entrepreneur Seminar & Tradeshow at Florida Gulf Coast UniversityUpdate October 15, 2012

Today we posted the slide desk for the Online Marketing & Social Media Track from this weekend’s event.

“It Starts with a Blog”

Why you should start blogging.  In essence:  Blogging increases Search Engine Visibility within months and gets your site ready for the Social Web, ready for the sharing economy.

“Facebook For Business”

The new Facebook timeline for business: what has changed and how you can streamline your Facebook experience. Walk through the anatomy of a Facebook page, your options for reaching out to existing and future clients through networking and posting.

“Google+ Pages & Google Analytics”

Google+ pages are so much easier to set-up and manage than Facebook pages.  And, as a huge benefit, they are part of the search engine powerhouse, Google. This session will cover examples of brand pages and also wraps up the morning with a look at how measuring social media marketing performance can be measured by generating traffic for your website
