Program Description

Everyone’s talking about podcasts and blogs. Do you know what they are and how you can use them to your advantage?

Blogs are one of the easiest ways to publish online. You don’t have to know anything about web design to use a blog to showcase your expertise and help build your brand cheaply and easily.

Since 2004, podcasting has allowed thousands of independent professionals to create their own “talk radio” shows to increase their credibility and sales success. You can, too-even if you never record your own show. All you need to get your name in front of the right prospects around the world is a computer, an internet connection, and a little time to listen. (That’s right—no iPod required.)

Even if you don’t think podcasts and blogs are for you, attend this session to learn the lingo so you can talk about them knowledgeably with clients, prospects and Gen Y.

You will learn:

What business blogs should be and who should use them
How to start blogging in 5 minutes (and when not to)
What podcasts are, how to use them and promote yourself to clients and prospects
How to find the conversations you want to join
