Social media is the topic of the decade. It is becoming SO popular with consumers and businesses - any business that fails to get on board with it is probably going to fall behind the rest of the pack.

That's probably why I am teaching on it so much these days. I'll giving two classes at the AMTA Schools Summit in St. Pete Beach, FL on February 18-19, 2010 (Effective Uses of Social Media in the Classroom and Marketing Your School with Social Media).

Then in March I'm off to Las Vegas and the Day Spa Expo (March 13 -15, 2010) where I'll be speaking on SMART Spa Marketing with Social Media. And in June I'll be headed to the World Massage Festival in Berea, Kentucky (June 17 -23) where I'll be teaching SMART Massage Marketing with Social Media.

Do you see a trend?

Here's a quick preview of what I'll be discussing at the AMTA Schools Summit next month. (I'd appreciate it if you'd rate the video so it will move up higher in the rankings and get some good exposure for the conference

 


With all of this interest in the topic, I've decided to offer a Social Media Bootcamp for Massage & Spa Professionals. The details are all still coming together but I wanted to give you a SAVE THE DATE heads up for it so that you don't miss out.

This 4 week class will be jam packed with information on how you can grow your business, make more money, increase your professional network and market yourself effectively and more affordably with social media. And those of you who are massage therapists will be able to get CE 4 hours of credit for being a part of the bootcamp.

Over 4 weeks, we'll learn how to get set up on the most popular and effective social media tools and sites, work together on creating your Social Media Marketing Plan, discuss effective ways for drawing traffic to your website through social media, building relationships and engaging  your clients and potential clients, tracking social media's impact on your business and lots more.

All the classes will be available for MP3 downloads after the class so you can save and review them at a later time. (This is great in case you miss a class or are running late!) You'll also get handouts and a workbook for the bootcamp and a variety or templates that you can put to immediate use in your business.

The Social Media Bootcamp for Massage & Spa Professionals is scheduled to start on Monday, March 22nd and running for a total of 4 weeks. It will be held at 11AM PST/12 PM MST/1PM CST/2PM EST.  Space is limited but if this class fills up, I will offer a second class on Tuesdays beginning March 23rd. It will likely start 2 PM PST/3 PM MST/4PM CST/5PM EST or if demand dictates, later in the day.

A free preview call is scheduled for Wednesday March 10th at 10AM PST/11 AM MST/12 PM CST/1 PM EST. Be on the lookout for the link and sign-up information in the coming weeks. You'll definitely want to be a part of that FREE call and take advantage of some additional offers that will only be available to people who attend the call. I look forward to seeing you there!
