Social media-related training

 

 

  • Creating a social media strategy: Your social media strategy is your map to social media success. 
  • Social media analytics: Having a strategy is integral to the success of your social media efforts, but it is not enough. You should also constantly measure how your content and strategy are performing. Without a constant performance analysis, there is no way for you to know if your efforts are actually working in the way you intended.
