If you’ve been a follower of my information for any length of time you know my main audience is network marketers.
I’ve been able to help hundreds of thousands of network marketers make the transition of working solely offline calling on friends and family to generating leads on online to attract people into their business opportunity.
I get comments like the following all the time.

But out of my huge following over 25% of them are traditional business owners. People like chiropractors, doctors, dentists, attorneys, Realtors and a smattering of other niches.
It’s amazing how many business owners follow my information.
I even have a gentleman who owns a restaurant hoods business in my coaching program. You know, those huge industrial oven hoods you see in big restaurants. He wanted help marketing his website.
The list goes on.
So I’ve put together a resource that’s going to help the local small business owner. By the way, this is a live event as in face to face type of setting. Not a webinar as those are called “live events” too.
This event will be with both feet on the ground speaking in front of a group of people.
So what I’ve put together is the “Social Marketer Workshop – Social Media Marketing Success For The Busy Small Business Owner in Just 15 Minutes A Day!”
It’s being hosted here in the Twin City metro area of Saint Paul, MN on Wednesday, August 21 from 11 am – 1 pm CST.
You can find the rest of the details here.

I’m really excited about this because the stats bear out what my training can provide for the local small business owner.
Here Are a Handful of Some Interesting Stats…
Small Business Owners Spend Over $390 Billion Dollars Annually For Their Online Marketing Needs… $50 Billion Alone Goes Towards Consulting and Research… And Another $202 Billion Goes Towards Website Hosting, Design, and Maintenance
Your Average Small Business Owner Spends $17,000 annually on web marketing services, and is spending $6,800 annually for online advertising (paid search, display ads).
According to Google 60 percent of Minnesota’s small businesses don’t even have a website. As reported by Minnesota Public Radio if you take “small business” all the way down to the most basic level of a single, self-employed person, that could mean as many as 400,000 Minnesota businesses that don’t have a web presence.
and lastly…
A 2011 poll from the Main Street Chamber of Minnesota revealed the overwhelming need for small businesses is “Sales & Marketing Services, Systems, Software, Coaching/Training” as their top business need at a whopping 60.3%.
The second ranked top need was “Website Development, SEO and Social Media (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc.” at 39.6%.
The third top ranked need was “General Business Planning, Consulting and Coaching/Training at 32.7%”.
All this from local business owners right here in the Twin City metro area. A total of 6000 small business owners participated in this survey! The challenge is often times small business owners don’t know who is best suited to help them market their business and often times inexperienced people who end up wasting the precious resources of the small business owner.
Not so with our Social Marketer Workshop.
Here’s What Just One of 4,000 Attendees Had To Say…
“I have a Master’s Degree in Internet Marketing and when Sue came to my area to speak I didn’t think I’d learn anything new. I was wrong! Sue had great insight on Social Media in which I took immediate action in implementing. I was glad I took the time to sit in on one of Sue’s workshops and I suggest others to do the same.” – Dustin Robins
That’s some pretty direct tangible results.
Here’s what other attendees have said of our past workshops…
“I attended Sue’s Social Media and Marketing BNI Advanced Training. I learned more than I had ever thought I would need to know about Social Media and Marketing. WOW was I mistaken there. Sue was very Detailed and very Enthusiastic in her training! My Partner had been unemployed in Minneapolis, MN for over a year. I took the Info from the Session and handed it off to Owen. I said “take a look at this training from Sue’s Social Media Training” He looked over the information and created his Linked IN profile, added his resume on Friday night. Monday, the Phone started ringing off the wall. He had 5 interviews set up in less than 72 hours. (In the last 1+ year he had nothing) Ultimately, Owen accepted a position in Indianapolis, IN with Vertellus Chemicals and we are VERY GRATEFUL to Sue for her knowledge and training abilities. Thank you Sue for helping us Create our future!” – Kevin Saltzer
Here’s What To Do Next

It’s all good. I’m very convinced that the network marketing business really works. I also understand that I have to work for some people I.e. Insiders. I will do my best to upgrade my presence on the Multi Level Marketing game and thereby sending promotional information to promote my MLM Company. Ann Sieg thanks a million times, am persuaded that it can be done with skill set of Internet tools and producing content to become the King of Network Marketing.
Check out my spin, I will just do as you have instructed.
