6pm Tuesday, December 6 will mark the kickoff date for a free series of workshops to be delivered by Glerin Business Resources. The first workshop will be an overview of the major social media outlets, explaining what each is, how they differ from each other, what they're used for, and how they can be used together in a coordinated way.
Topics covered will include Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, YouTube and more, plus using blogging and newsletters in coordination with social media.
The Halifax County IDA is sponsoring the series as it's latest Existing Business initiative. Halifax County Tourism and the Halifax County Chamber of Commerce are co-sponsors. The series is being developed to help businesses and organizations use social media more effectively to prepare themselves for the future of marketing.
The workshops will be held in the conference room at Riverstone Centre in Riverstone Technology Park.
In January the series will continue with monthly workshops focusing on a different social media outlet each month.

The INDEX is the industry’s most comprehensive rating of rural providers. It provides the data foundation for the annual Rural Relevance Study and its results are the basis for many of rural healthcare’s most prominent awards, advocacy efforts and legislative initiatives. The Top 100 Rural and Community Hospitals play a key role in providing a safety net to communities across America – and the INDEX measures them across eight pillars of hospital strength: Inpatient Market Share, Outpatient Market Share, Cost, Charge, Quality, Outcomes, Patient Perspectives, and Financial Stability.
