Greater Shepparton Business Centre has organised a number of great workshops to help small businesses and home based businesses to succeed in the digital world.
The courses are designed to assist small businesses to think about what they need to know before developing a website, to consider Facebook as a marketing tool, how to write Facebook posts to get the best value for their business.
Greater Shepparton City Council Manager Economic Development Geraldine Christou said “this is a great opportunity for small businesses to learn how to add value to what they are already doing, without costing them a fortune; they don’t even have to drive to Melbourne. They are all delivered locally in Shepparton”.
“The courses run for two hours, so they are nice and succinct. We understand that time is money for businesses, so two hours to learn something new to benefit your business is really advantageous” said Ms Christou.
