One of my New Years resolutions is to start a small business this year. This course will boost marketing a small business
What started off as a hobby, has become my passion. I’ve been doing social media blogging/marketing for about 5/6 years and all self-taught along the way. Fb pages, twitter and IG have mostly been community and interest based, and since 2014 also helping a friends promotions company. I need to start earning substantial income and have the needed qualification to sell my business as a social media marketer with, better. With students in the house already, a much needed course is just not within my financial means right now.
This would really help me to better myself and help my family
I run a small business and do a lot of the social media work myself. it is such a fast paced, every changing field and I really need to stay on top of my game. I think this course will be incredibly valuable in helping me understand the role of social media in business and to help expand our customer base
This GetSmarter social media course will help me to improve the family business. We have a travel agency and it would be great to connect to our clients, share travel tips and ideas, hear about their experiences and to gain more clients š
This would be an awesome opportunity for me as i work for a communications agency which has integrated social media in their campaigns. I have a passion for learning new and exciting skills that will not only enhance my ability to perform better in the workplace but also make sure that i am up to scratch with the latest social media trends. As a mom, you want to stay on top of up and coming trends! š
This course is my game changer. I have a passion for the career path that I want to follow and I want to get a job doing what I love so I can be excited about the work that I do. I’m hoping that this course will improve my social media skills so that I can make a success of this endeavor.
My hubby and I recently started an online foodie business. Realised very soon that most of our sales come from social media! I am absolutely fascinated by it and need to know more! I believe the key to our business’ success lies in social media. After hearing about this course from someone who’s done it, I know that this is exactly what I need!
This will make my future so much brighter š
Thanks for the awesome opportunity
