Wing Wah Manchester

HI, Lisa. Thanks for writing.I am curnertly enrolled in the Winter Session at SMMU but have no other direct affiliation with the management or ownership of the program. Other than the money I paid for tuition, no financial connection at all. Greig Wells did just added me to his extensive Linkedin group, but he's added everyone from the school who asked!I've invested a fair amount of money on social media training, both on-site at San Francisco State University as well a online course beyone SMMU. And I invest time in free webinars because quality and topic detail are improving. (I'm passionate about social media for business can you tell?)I sometimes write about free webinars I like free education and want to spread the word. Many of those webinars repeat or are archived.I'm also studying the finer-points of webinar creation what works and what doesn't.Greig Wells did a great job on the free SMMU one in October. I just called it as I experienced it. Keep in mind, though, that I come to these webinars (free and fee) with increasing social media knowledge and experience. What's your experience level?We're only 2 classes into SMMU program. Tomorrow is class #3.Greig taught the first class and again, did a great job. We were provided access to a video and a detailed transcription of the class within 48 hours. The good news is that the transcript included the Q A and that included a lot of information because they kept the lines open until all questions were answered.What are you trying to accomplish from taking something like the SMMU program? My goal in coming to SMMU was two-fold: Information specific to company use of social media beyond the top-of-mind three (Twitter/Facebook/Linkedin) as well as the official certification. There are a lot of people who say they're social media coaches we need to offer prospects a way to sift the crowd.If you're on a stiff budget there are lots of free ways to move you up the learning curve. Webinars. Library books. Even just experimenting. (I do all these things, too.)Does this help?If you want to talk in more detail, send a direct email to me with a phone number and I'll give you a call tomorrow, okay? Robin
