The social media workshops Troy Johnson of AALBC.com and I did at this year’s Harlem Book Fair in New York received some very good feedback from the participants.   A huge thank you goes to the Amsterdam News Editor-in-Chief, Nayaba Arinde and reporter Daatya I.  Sanusi, for including us in their coverage of the book fair.

Social media is an invaluable, cost effective tool for developing business and when used correctly, can generate some very powerful results.  It was a truly wonderful experience talking with the authors and entrepreneurs, from New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, and several other surrounding states who attended.

The familiarity level with social media of  those in attendance ran the gamut, from being signed up on multiple online platforms, to only having heard about social media and having a desire to acquire more information prior to diving in.

I truly enjoyed discussing technology I’m having such a great time using, in my neighborhood at a venue my family has been frequenting for many years.  Troy and I are discussing development of more seminars that will provide business building guidance, specifically designed for individual business types and levels of social media literacy, so stay tuned!
