If you’ve been hesitating to join Twitter because you just don’t know how to get started, now’s your chance to learn with the experts. Beginning in August, Herrmann Advertising | Branding | Technology will host free “Twitter 101” classes that explore this widely popular social media that allows users to communicate with the world via 140-character messages.
The free sessions are designed to teach individuals the basics of using Twitter for themselves and their businesses. The 90-minute classes, which include a light complimentary lunch, will provide an overview of the platform’s features, a look at how professionals can take advantage of Twitter’s reach for public relations and business development, and hands-on demonstrations. Attendees will learn how to set up an account, choose and attract followers, how to monitor what others are saying about them, and hear real stories about the benefits – and pitfalls – of tweeting to an audience of millions around the globe.
Upcoming sessions are scheduled for Aug. 29 and Sept. 19 at Herrmann’s Annapolis headquarters at 30 West St. and begin promptly at 12:00 p.m. Pre-registration is required and participants can make reservations by calling Michael Romano, 410.267.6522, ext. 245, or by emailing [email protected].
