Why Take This Course?

Social media has altered how the world learns, connects, views, and purchases online, and offline.  If you’re responsible for marketing a brand, you need to create a positive and consistent presence on the appropriate media channels for your industry, target audience, and goals. Doing it right can help you increase access, strengthen trust, build relationships, create a dialogue, and enhance your reputation. Doing it wrong—or not at all—risks making your brand invisible.

But when you already have many responsibilities on your plate, how can you be successful in a media-saturated market, and make it a repeatable process?

This one-module workshop gives a quick overview of the mechanics of social media from a social media manager’s standpoint. Social media strategist and instructor Beverly Theresa unpacks how organic social media works, where it is most effective, and ways to structure, manage and execute social media communications effectively.

In this two-hour workshop, you will learn the best practices for creating strategies that get results, understand what the data is telling you about your stakeholders, and leverage content to build an online presence that strengthens your brand reputation.
This fundamentals class will walk you through the process and give you the tools to succeed in social media marketing through 2025.
