Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

I am working on a project to help the 28,000 foster children in Los Angeles County. It is rare that I work on a project which touches the core of my soul. What Dr. Jay Grossman (not related to me), is doing with Homeless Not Toothless is simply amazing. It impacts us all in so many ways.

Get involved and make a difference. He is hosting a fundraiser gala on September 10th in Santa Monica California. Attend this event. If you cannot attend, make a donation. Dr. Jay needs your help now.

Announcement: Robert Grossman Conducting Workshop on Social Networking

By Robert Grossman · Comments (0)

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

I believe Social Networking is one of the single most powerful ways to build communities and businesses.

During the past year, I have been asked to speak many times to various companies and professional groups on how to use Social Networking.

After each workshop and panel, many participants asked me if I offered hands-on workshops. They wanted to learn how to use LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and video on the web.

Due to this demand, Focus Creative Group will now be conducting quarterly workshops, monthly webinars as well as private office consultations on how to use social media.

On August 11, 2009, Focus Creative Group will be conducting its first hands-on workshop designed to get you to a high level of understanding and to get you to use Social Networking.

Don’t miss out on this valuable workshop on LinkedIn and Twitter! Bring your laptop and learn about the following:

Why Social Networking is vital to the future of your business
How to build your brand and image using social media
How to use Twitter, Facebook, blogging and video on the web for business
How to protect your reputation
Creating and maintaining your LinkedIn profile
Adding connections
Responding to invitations
Finding new business prospects and business opportunities
Expanding your network using groups
Becoming a “thought leader” by answering questions
Protecting your privacy

The workshop is 3 hours long. Bring your laptop so you can work on your profiles and learn about many of the advanced features and privacy settings. We will be offering the workshop online a few days after the workshop.

If you would like more information, please click on the link at the top of the page.

I would also love to hear any questions you have about Social Media. I would be happy to answer and post them here.
