Google My Business Workshop 03/05/20
Web Design

I have partnered with Social Guru 4 You and we’re presenting a new workshop that every business needs. The best way for your business to rank well on Google Search and be found on Google Maps is to claim and use your Google My Business profile.

In Google My Business and Local SEO workshop, we will take a deep dive into how search engines work first. Then we’ll show you how to optimize your business profile so that Google can better understand who you are, what services you offer or products you sell, and where your business is located.

Not many businesses are using Google My Business to its full potential so this is your opportunity to get ahead of your competition on Google. An optimized, active listing will improve how potential customers can find your business in a Google Search and on Google Maps.

Celebrating Five Years of Marketing Training
Web Design

I am currently celebrating five years of providing community training to northern Michigan business owners and their staff! Web design is my bread and butter, and providing marketing training is the fun stuff!

In January 2015, I was a co-founder of HarborActive community training. Our goal was to provide marketing classes and social media training for the Petoskey and Harbor Springs business community. All classes were offered as hands-on learning opportunities. Since we learn better by doing, everyone was learning on their own laptops, tablets, and smartphones.

Oh, I can’t forget Wine & Web – we found that learning is much more fun with alcohol!

Michigan Broadband Conference

One of the highlights in 2016 was representing HarborActive at the Michigan Broadband Conference. We competed in the Connected Community Project Awards where we took second place and received funding for our program.

The HarborActive team took part in the Community Education Panel at the same Michigan Broadband Conference. We were on the panel on stage and participated in a lively discussion about starting a community training program and what to expect for attendance.

Marketing Training from Abuzz Creative

I now offer personalized marketing training and corporate training for business groups through my business Abuzz Creative. My Lunch & Learn classes always sell out which tells me people are hungry for learning (see what I did there?).

I recently hosted Google My Business & Local SEO Workshop with Social Guru 4 You and we filled a room with attentive business people ready to learn.

Collaborating with a team like Social Guru 4 You has made something I love doing even more fun! We are planning more events and classes and will be rolling out a schedule soon.
