In this workshop, you will learn how to set up these accounts for your business and how to create engaging and useful messaging with your brand on it. Additional takeaways include how content impacts your website traffic, fun and enjoyable use of these channels, ways to make your content shareable, and best practices for messaging on these accounts.
