Beginner

blogging

You’re a small business, and you need to grow. Quickly. But your marketing budget is $0.

You’re a Fortune 500 company, and your competitors have blogs and Facebook fan pages and Twitter accounts. You barely have a Web site.

It’s time to get in the game.

Take ‘Beginning Blogging for Business.’

Increase foot traffic and sales with next-to-nothing spent on advertising. Communicate directly with customers and future customers.

In “Beginning Blogging for Business,” we will cover everything you need to get your blog up and running. It’s not difficult: Blogging requires a clear focus, a measurable goal and a steady hand — and some know-how, of course.

“If you are the least bit interested in learning how to blog,
please consider attending Wade’s blogging class.
I attended his one day workshop, and I am ecstatic with what I learned.
Everyone who attended couldn’t get to their computers fast enough to get started.”

— David Sher, co-CEO, AmSher Receivables Management
