21st September 2010 - Business in Berkshire News: www.businessinberkshire.co.uk/140910.html

Morning

Business in Berkshire was created out of a need for local businesses to connect with each other. Mostly it has been smaller businesses that have been interested in the networking events but as the government funds dry up and many organisations are forced to actually generate revenue by selling their services, something they are not used to doing, there is a need for business men and women to get up to speed with the tools that are available to them.

Our 2020 Social Media Event is the party to be at.

We launched Social Media Directors at the start of the year and it is going from strength to strength. Lots of interest in what we are doing and the brand is so very strong it is leading the way.

It therefore makes jolly good sense to boost our brand and the awareness of our existence on this planet by running an event which will capture the mood of the moment and generate a buzz that will ultimately help many local businesses.

Watch the video above to get the gist and then review our 2020 Social Media .co.uk web space. You will find information relating to:

Our advanced LinkedIn training for Sales and Marketing Professionals

The 2020 Social Media Networking lunch

And our "Re-connect to your local community" conference

Please join us for the event and tell your pals.

There are sponsorship opportunities for those who would like to be associated with our event starting at just £250 + VAT if you join in during September.

Thank you.
