With a handful of social media platforms out there how do you choose the best one for your business and how do you make it effective? In this workshop we are going to dig into two of the top business social media choices Instagram and Facebook for Business.

Since you must have a Facebook Business page in order to run a Instagram business account you will need both. Please come with your Instagram and Facebook Business Pages created.
