The Arkansas Small Business and Technology Development Center and Arkansas Business Navigator will offer “Got Social?,” a new learning event for businesses and entrepreneurs, on Thursday, Nov. 3.
The theme of the hybrid event is how to strategically approach social media to grow a business. There is no cost to participate in-person or online. On-site location is the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension State Office in Little Rock.
“For those already using social media, we want to take it one step further and become even better at utilizing it for sales and awareness of your business and brand,” said ASBTDC’s Whitney Horton, one of the event’s lead organizers.
Starting at 9 a.m., the seminar will feature five main sessions led by experienced Arkansas marketers:
Molly Shirell, Obtain Creative – Event Kickoff
Seth Barlow, Little Rock Convention & Visitors Bureau – Facebook
Lauren Ramsey, Puzzle Piece Media – TikTok
Eyona Mitchell, ASBTDC – Instagram
Frank H. Cox III, CMW – Closing Session
Their presentations will explain how to gauge which social channel is best for your business, plus how to navigate that platform and convert followers to customers.
On-site will also be a digital health check lab, where digital experts will look at attendees’ social media pages and offer on-the-spot advice.
The complimentary lunch sponsored by TruService Community Federal Credit Union will be catered by the Croissanterie. A cornhole tournament and networking opportunities on the beautiful scenic walking trail will offer some fun breaktime socializing, weather permitting.
Pre-registration is required, as capacity is limited. When you register, you can choose the virtual or in-person option.
