Get Started in Social Media with Raincoaster Media

As a non profit, do you Tweet, have a Facebook Page, blog, use YouTube or flickr? If you are using any of these tools or thinking about it, then this will be a very useful event for you! Raincoaster Media presents Getting Started in Social Media on Tuesday, August 3rd from 2pm-3:30pm Pacific time, a program that runs weekly to October 5th. This is a thorough, intensive introduction to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Friendfeed, and other popular social media platforms. The course covers social media practices and ethics, the etiquette unique to each platform (and how not to go wrong!), how to set up your personal profile, privacy concerns, how to promote your events, product, and self via social media, and how to turn online connections into an offline social and business life. This workshop is a hands-on, lets-get-you-signed-up course. It will also allow you to make informed choices about your participation in the social media space in the future.
