There are 100s or social media courses out there and some are very good. But they mostly focus on either the strategy or the tools. This course is not just about the strategy. I will show you the tools you need to know and then how to effectively use these tools to build relationships.
I have also added several home work assignments (exercises) in this course. I would strongly encourage you to PAUSE the course and complete these along the way. These exercises are very simple and will not take more than 15 or 20min each. These assignments will help you understand the overall big picture.
After completing this course you will have a clear understanding of
- Who your ideal targeting audience is
- What social media channels you need to focus on (HINT: You don't have to be on all the social media networks)
- What social media tools you need to have on your computer & mobile phone
- How you can find Journalists who cover your industry
- How to manage your social media marketing effectively (20min a day)
What are the requirements?
- Before taking this course you should already have basic social media channels set up for your startup or business (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest). Also you should already know how to post, tweet & Pin on these social media channels.
