Social media is changing the way consumers interact with businesses. No matter if you’re a big or small business, you can use social media to help you:

  • Get more referrals through online word of mouth
  • Improve customer loyalty and repeat sales

  • Be recognised as the person who can provide solutions

Who should attend

The Buzzmedia Bootcamp: Social Media Basics covers the basics of online marketing and social media and is aimed at small business owners, marketing and public relations, and front-line marketers.

This seminar is meant for you if

  • You have heard about Social Media but don’t think you have enough ‘tech knowledge’ to use it in your business
  • You want to learn from Malaysian examples and local success stories
  • You don’t want another ‘Make Money Online’ or ‘Massive Website Traffic’ seminars
  • You are not sure of the difference between a Facebook Group and Facebook Page
  • You still don’t have a website for your business
  • You believe in long-term relationships with your customer, and not short-term profits

Grounded in principles

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. – Chinese proverb

No matter if you manage single or multiple retail outlets, or if you have an online business, Buzzmedia Bootcamp: Social Media Basics will equip you with tools and strategies that can apply to your situation. What you will learn is grounded in principles and will apply to your retail, online or service business. In other words, we teach you how to fish. You can then go fishing anywhere you like.

Small business owners: you have a BIG opportunity with social media that can put you ahead of corporate competitors. As a small business, you already interact personally with your customers and social media is a natural extension to that interaction. Large companies however, are out of touch with their customers because the CEO is busy playing golf. Learn how you can use social media to level the playing field and stretch your marketing dollar.
