As part of a series of lectures to help small businesses and organizations in town, the Tolland Public Library Foundation will present a talk Wednesday, Nov. 12 on “How to Grow Your Business with Email and Social Media.”
April Woodcock, managing partner of Touching Clients of Norwich, will discuss how to make the most of email, mobile technology and social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest to market a business or organization.
Woodcock, an “authorized local expert” of Constant Contact who lectures throughout New England, said the marketing possibilities for small businesses can be time-consuming and overwhelming. She said she will show participants how to “make sense of the noise” so audience members will come away with a greater understanding of marketing basics.
The free event will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. in Conference Room A of Tolland Town Hall at 21 Tolland Green.
The Foundation started the series in December 2014 to bring in experts to offer free advice to existing businesses or to residents thinking about starting a business. The occasional lectures also give local business owners a chance to meet one another and network.
Registration is required for this event. To register, call the Tolland Public Library at 860-871-3620.
