Do you know how to blog and use the latest Internet tools to promote your food business? What’s the best use of a social network site like Facebook, Google Plus or LinkedIn? Do you know how to create and upload a video trailer on YouTube? Can you blog with the best of them? If not, you’re not taking advantage of all the ways to acquire interest and improve the chances of getting “earned” media attention for your business.

This workshop will teach you how to blog and use the latest technology to promote and market your food businesses. Learn what to blog, how to grow your “friends,” “followers” and “connections,” and how to use social media to increase your exposure and attract new customers.
