Webinar: Blogs- An Integral Part of an Economic Development Marketing Strategy

Economic Developers Alberta (EDA) is pleased to offer its next Marketing Masters Webinar, titled "Blogs: An Integral Part of an Economic Development Strategy".

The blog is the “keystone” of a solid social media marketing strategy. Blogs have tremendous potential when executed properly. Blogs also have advantages over the typical EDO newsletter: long shelf life, easy to update, available on demand, broad reach, flexible framework for ideas, news, video, and photos without the limitations of a web site.

This webinar is not designed to convince you to blog. Our expert panelist will help you use a blog as an integral part of an economic development marketing strategy. So, whether you have already started, are planning to start, or are still considering a blog, it’s time to break behind the hype. Join our expert panel to deconstruct what a blog means to your marketing strategy and how to maximize the value of a blog as a pivotal component of an economic development marketing program.
