Social Networking and Social Media on Steroids – A Practical Guide to Building an Audience

In today’s small business world, combining your ability to build an in-person and online audience can build a customer base (audience) much faster, cheaper, and easier. Our Speaker, Brian Stauffer of NerdsToGO, will give the top tips for success that have helped him build a successful Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Tic Tok following as well as doubling down on in-person networking simultaneously. This presentation will leave you with actionable steps to help build an audience and ways to get started immediately.

 

Brian Stauffer spent 29 years building audiences as a station manager and as an On-Air morning show host in cities including Denver, Nashville, and Miami before he opened NerdsToGo. He has been using that experience to grow NerdsToGo, IT Solutions for Business and Home.

 

Registration is required so we may plan accordingly.

This event is offered as a benefit for Chamber membership. We also believe these are important topics for everyone, so we are opening this event to non-members for $15.

Vote in the “Coolest Thing Made in NC” Competition
Sep 12 all-day
online

Byer’s Precision Fabricators announced today that they have been named as a semi-finalist in the “Coolest Thing Made in NC” Competition.

The top 5 businesses in each category will be announced on September 22, when Byer’s may move on to the last round, and compete as a “Top 5” contender. The winner will be announced on October 6.

 

The vote tally has been reset to level the field for all semifinalists. As in the first round, the community may still only vote once a day with a valid email address.

 

To cast your vote for Byer’s Precision, click here: http://wshe.es/32QyUdFR

 

This competition helps to highlight manufacturing in NC, a crucial key to the state’s economic success. Byer’s Precision Fabricators was opened in 1942 by Paul Byers, where he started a general sheet metal shop in Hendersonville, NC. Byer’s Sheet Metal Works quickly became one of the largest ductwork and roofing contractors in the state. Today, Byer’s Precision Fabricators is a 60,000 sq. ft facility, and the company has come a long way in 80 years! For more information about Byer’s, click here:  https://www.byersprecision.com/
