Attend this workshop to find out: • Why your business should have a Google+ page and how to use that page to drive business • How Google+ features affect search and how it helps customers find your business online • How to develop an effective content strategy to keep followers engaged • Why and how creating authorship gives you an advantage • What other brands are doing successfully on Google+ You will walk away from this workshop with all the details you need to get started and build a thriving presence on Google+.
