Well, July is almost over and I’ve neglected to post on a couple of great events we’ve been a part of this month.

First, on July 7, 2010, Eric Bryant had the honor of doing a special breakout session on Social Media for Maine Successful Thinkers and on July 22, 2010 Core Zero Creative hosted a face-to-face networking event at Margarita’s in Auburn, Maine with guest speaker Debra Ann St. Hilaire of Menda-A-Body. Both events were well attended and many great connections were made.

Jeff Ball of Maine Successful Thinkers and Debra Ann St. Hilaire of Mend-A-Body are both exceptional people and business owners with the highest integrity! We are honored to have been paired with them during these events and pray many blessings on their endeavors.

Hang around these two, take lessons, and pick their brains if you want to know how to be successful.

Today we had our first Social Media Lunch & Learn at Margarita’s in Auburn, Maine. Everyone brought their questions, concerns, and gave great input. Margarita’s served a great lunch and as usual, great service.

We talked about concerns regarding time management, the differences between the different platforms, and what you should be doing online. The participants have given a lot of positive feedback.

Thanks for the Lunch & Learn on July 6 at Margarita’s. Your presentation was clear and informative. Thanks for answering questions in a way I could easily understand and will be able to use the information immediately. I’m looking forward to future lunches.

We are so pleased with the turn out and are really looking forward to future Social Media Lunch & Learns.

On November 7 at the Androscoggin Chamber of Commerce AND available through Webinar, Core Zero Creative will be presenting workshops on various topics.  In the morning session we will show you the value of developing your social media presence through some of the top social media sites, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, and Blogging. Then Tony Crawford from Weeple, Inc. will present Appreciation Marketing™ where he will also show you how to “Be Remembered, Recognized, and Raved About”!

The afternoon session is a 3 hour hands-on workshop on Blogging using the WordPress platform.  Trust me, you won’t want to miss this one!

Description: The content has the potential to literally launch your business (and profitability) by showing you how to get started building a Social Media Presence. Not only on the Internet, but also in your day-to-day interactions with customers, clients, and prospects. Businesses using Social Media Marketing and Appreciation Marketing are seeing astronomical increases in customer retention, repeat business, and referrals and I’ve designed a 3 hour seminar that jump starts you in both areas.

The seminar covers two major topics: Social Media Marketing and Appreciation Marketing. Social Media Marketing is the act of using social influencers, social media platforms, and online communities for marketing, publication relations, and customer service. Social Media Marketing tools include Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Blogs, Digg, Delicious, and hundreds more.

Appreciation Marketing is in and of itself as powerful as Social Media Marketing. It’s about being fresh, creative, and unpredictable in a positive way. You separate yourself from the masses when you take the time to communicate something personal or memorable to a client or prospect. Appreciation Marketing is the act of building someone else up. It’s about standing out from the crowd, being different, being amazing, and making someone’s day. I’ve also got a great digital new-school twist on an old-school marketing technique for you.

Upcoming Dates: Check our website for other available dates.

Registration Info: The seminar fee is $49 payable to Core Zero Creative. Advance registration is required.

If you have any questions at all please contact us at 207-212-2432 or send email for more info and for available dates and times.

The Core Zero Creative Social Media Marketing series continues with an in-depth hands-on workshop on using Twitter as a Social Media Marketing platform to brand and build your business. This is a hands-on workshop with plenty of lab time, so bring your wireless notebook. You’ll create and develop your Twitter profile, and learn how to use Twitter to interact with Web 2.0 social sites to find new prospects and keep your current clients close.

Every day, millions of people use Twitter to create, discover and share ideas with others. Now, people are turning to Twitter as an effective way to reach out to businesses, too. From local stores to big brands, and from brick-and-mortar to internet-based or service sector, people are finding great value in the connections they make with businesses on Twitter.

As a business, you can use it to quickly share information with people interested in your company, gather real-time market intelligence and feedback, and build relationships with customers, partners and other people who care about your company. As an individual user, you can use Twitter to tell a company (or anyone else) that you’ve had a great–or disappointing–experience with their business, offer product ideas, and learn about great offers.

In addition to learning how to use Twitter effectively, you’ll also learn about free third party tools that greatly expand your reach and save you time, too. There will be plenty of power tips, tricks, and traps to watch out for, and a few Twitter success stories as well! The workshop runs from 1:00pm to 4:00pm at the Androscoggin Chamber of Commerce office at 415 Lisbon St, in Lewiston, ME, and the fee is $49. Advanced Registration required. Call 207-212-2432 for more information.
