It’s with an immense pleasure that I invite all of you guerilleros and guerilleras to join me in a great run-through of Social Media Marketing strategies geared for local businesses.

I’ll be at a BlogTalkRadio show on Thursday afternoon with Marnie Swedberg and you’re in for a real treat.

Here are the details:

When: Thursday 02/25
Time: 4:00pm
Call-in #: (646) 727-2510
Address:

As you’re very much aware, Social Media has no borders or boundaries, and despite its wonderful benefits, connecting with your neighbors online has always been somewhat of a challenge.

Mentor Marnie

Marnie Swedberg is a community leader, mom, brick & mortar and online entrepreneur that hosts a popular radio show on BlogTalkRadio. She’s the utmost definition of a successful Guerillera.

However, even a guerillera such as Marnie has her issues dealing with a local audience – she owns a restaurant and wants to reach her community via Social Media.

Based on that, here’s what you’ll be learning at the interview:

  • How To Set Realistic Goals
  • What Exactly Can You Blog About To Motivate Community Engagement
  • The Difference Between Social Networking & Social Media Marketing (And why most business owners get it all wrong)
  • The Most Suitable Platforms For Local Businesses (Hint: You’re probably already on it!)
  • How To Integrate Blog, Facebook, Twitter To Minimize Your Efforts And Maximize Your Exposure
  • A Tool That Lists Every Known Twitter account In Your Area
  • And The Best (And Free) Way To Track Your Results

If I’m missing anything, let me know. Post a comment here with your question or shoot me a reply over @leosaraceni.

See you there!
