Bring Your Social Media In-house & Make it Thrive

Start + Grow Your Business

When you started your business you probably didn’t think about all the day-to-day marketing and promotion you’d be doing. Outsourcing your social media marketing is great way to establish consistency in your online presence, while allowing you to focus on what you do best — your business. Learn how you can bring marketing in-house and build a social media team that can thrive over time.

After the presentation, Marisa and students from the University of Illinois College of Media Sandage Social Media Lab/Brand Consults will provide insights on common questions and share advice and tips. Come have your questions answered about: 

• social media strategy
• brand awareness
• copywriting
• PR
• market research
• media analytics
• and more!
