Hello Core Zero –
I really enjoyed the Appreciation Marketing portion of the day. I’ve been on to the Weeple Inc website site and turned a bunch of people on to the movie “Validated”.

Very interesting to see where social media marketing has the potential to take a business. Now if I can just put it to use with my limited knowledge. Hopefully the workshop gave me the courage to dig in and give it a try. Tina and Eric gave a terrific presentation, a very knowledgeable couple! Thank you
very entertaining and valuable info. learned a few more resources that are useful daily. been playing with wordpress and linkedin…
This introduction to social media marketing was enough information to give a beginner like myself the courage to develop a strategy for using some of the Web 2.0 sites…so, I came home and got to work doing some things that I did not know could be done. I decided to start with Twitter where I had a presence but did not use the site much. After reviewing my notes and spending some time there, I changed my user name from the cryptic name I had set my site up with to college_matters (my company’s name) and added my real name and picture to my profile for quick recognition. I also added a brief bio using keywords to describe what I do.
I also set the privacy settings to have more control over who follows me and what is posted where.
Then I moved on to Tweetdeck. Wow! Everything at my fingertips. Now there’s a time saver! Thanks for the tips, Core Zero! I can’t wait for the follow up seminars.
Oh, and tell Weeple Inc. guy, Tony, that I was inspired by his presentation of Appreciation Marketing. His energy and enthusiasm are contagious!
Great seminar, I have not taken the time to set up other networking sites yet.
That is the plan for this weekend,and after the seminar I feel likes I at least I have some start-up tools.
Thanks so much for your time, I look forward to the follow up seminars!
