Ever wonder how social media can really work for you in the business world?  I have.  I mean I get the power of social media in boosting (or ruining) your personal brand if you are a celebrity,  politician, or consultant, but if you’re a small business with two or more employees, how do you use it to grow your business? 

As an advocate for small businesses, I’m always interested in ways UPS can help companies grow. That’s why I’m excited UPS is one of the sponsors of The Social Media Makeover Forum on November 8, 2011 in downtown Atlanta at the Centergy Building.

Think X Factor meets The Apprentice featuring three small business owners who have used social media channels but haven’t quite achieved the results they desire. A panel of social media experts from big brands, including UPS, will provide constructive feedback on what could have been done differently and advise them on future social media strategies that can lead to growth and interacting with global partners.

With the holidays coming up, consumers are getting busier, so small businesses need to get their messages out there quickly. The goods news – there’s a place where companies are willing to share stories on what works and what doesn’t. Small business owners don’t miss the makeover!
