Mayor Larry O’Connor writes…

On April 16, the BEDAC – together with staff from the Durham Region Economic Development department – hosted its first event, a Social Media Boot Camp. Brock High School offered up a classroom as the prefect venue for the workshop. Thirty local businesspeople came to find out what social media is, who’s using it and how to automate their communications to take advantage of social media spaces such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr.

Sue Sutcliffe, owner of ‘The Web Coach,’ shared her nine steps to a successful social media campaign, offered tips on how to manage your social media profile efficiently and tricks to make it as easy as sending an e-mail. Her presentation was so engaging that our local business owners kept her going for an extra 45 minutes.
