Are you:
- Looking for new ways to promote your business to gain more exposure?
- Thinking about doing more ‘online’ for your business or know you ‘should’ be?
- Wondering what all the fuss is about with Social Media?
- Wondering if you should be ‘on it’, and if so – which ones?? Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn??
If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of these questions then this session is perfect for you to find out more about what Social Media can do for your business.
“I would certainly recommend using Facebook to promote your business”
“After attending a workshop with Katrina and Dan, I posted a photo of a client I had done makeup for. By using some of the tricks I learnt in the Facebook workshop, the photo was seen by heaps of friends and fans on Facebook and as a result – I am fully booked out for makeup appointments in the prom season! For this new service in our salon, Facebook has worked like a charm in helping us to fill our books! I would certainly recommend using Facebook to promote your business and attending a workshop with Wide Bay Social Media.”
- Kala Duffy – Owner/Manager, Bella Donna Hair & Make Up

“…an entire job was booked with only communicating through Facebook”
“The workshops with Dan & Katrina were very worthwhile, they communicate and teach their information well, and now some time after the workshops I see the importance of the techniques they teach in the best way to manage your page.
For me I was initially sceptical of a positive return from my business Facebook page, so I was then genuinely surprised when we made sales because of the page. In fact an entire job was booked with only communicating through Facebook – I was surprised that the client preferred this method of communication with us!“
- Chris Cornish, Bundaberg Removals

If you would like to talk to us to find out if we can help your business then contact us on 07 4130 0153.
Last year our clients in Bundaberg and the Wide Bay region got started on Social Media and utilised it to bring in more business. One client went from 0 to 646 fans, one from 556 to 1059 and one from 3,000 to over 4,000 dedicated fans. Some clients got new jobs booked solely via Facebook messaging, some had their phones ring hot and their services booked out from just one post they put up.
If you are looking to do more with your Social Media you have 2 options:
- Learn how to manage your own Social Media by attending one of our training workshops – just like the 79 separate businesses who did in 2012 at one of our hands-on Social Media workshops in the region (from Gladstone to Gympie).
- Get the experts to manage it for you – have your entire Social Media marketing managed by us requiring no time investment from you. Every week the pages we manage, consult with or advertise for reach a combined audience of over 130,000 different people.
“You must be aware of how Social Media works and understand how it affects your business. It is not going away; in fact it is just in its infancy. Dan and Katrina at Wide Bay Social Media are the experts in Social Media in the Wide Bay region and we are fortunate to have such expertise based locally. I use Dan to present at my training course to ensure my agents leave with the knowledge they need to succeed in marketing their business.”
Mike Eastburn, Auctioneer and Real Estate Trainer, Bundaberg.
“I have found Dan & Katrina to be excellent at communicating their skills and knowledge, especially as I am “computer challenged”.
Since joining with them… my Facebook page has grown, slowly at first, but now appears to be creating its own energy and is racing towards 1000 likes.
I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is in business and wants to move forward.”
