Summary:Learn about Facebook and Google+' features, capabilities and étiquette - learn about what they can do for you (and what they can't!) and see whether your translator marketing can benefit from them.

Description
Let's talk G+ and Facebook! Everything and anything is going around the Web about these social networks. How about you? Are you wondering whether you should use them? How you should use it? Whether it really could be a great additional marketing tool for your translation business?

In this webinar you'll get the "keys" to Google+ and Facebook:
- to help you make a decision
- to learn about what each can do for your business
- to get started with G+ (and eventually Facebook if you're a FB beginner)
- Tricks and tips
- the G+ and the Facebook etiquettes

Important:
This course is part of a series of 3 webinars. If you register for all 3, you will receive a free private 30 minutes consulting session on your Social Media strategy/presence over the phone (or Skype) - date to be arranged privately via email with the trainer.
The other 2 courses of the series are:
- Boost your use of Twitter (see here)
- LinkedIn good practices for translators (see here)

This offer is valid for registration at all 3 live webinars only (does not apply to videos purchasing afterwards).
It does not apply anymore after the first webinar of the series has been held.

Target audience
This course is aimed at translators, whether new or seasoned, who are hesitating using / considering using / want to learn how to use or make a better use of Google+ and / or Facebook as additional marketing tools - or simply curious about them!

Hello Anne,

I missed this course due to a prior engagement, although I had paid for it. I haven't received anything about a video being available. Can you advise where I should look? Thanks.
