A great 'beginning' seminar to cover the basics of social media for bars and restaurants. For new or existing locations Nov. 17th at 10am or 2pm.

This seminar is for you if:

* You own or run a bar or restaurant.
* You know you need to get on the social media bandwagon to market your location more successfully.
* You've heard about tools such as Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare and LinkedIn.
* You're limited in terms of time, tech skills, and money.

In one hour, you'll learn:

* How social media differs from "traditional" marketing.
* What options are available to you in Portland.
* What to do about the social media tools you can control.
* What to do about the tools you can't control.
* How to post, what to post, and who should post.

And most importantly, how to make it all work together in just 10 minutes per day...if that's all you've got.

Presented by local hospitality social media manager Jennifer Hancox and NTN Buzztime's Brandon Hull.

Tickets are $20 if purchased in advance online, or $35 at the door. http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/135476

Shortened URL's have come under a cautionary note because they can disguise the names of malicious sites.

Jordan Robertson discusses them on MSNBC.

I have a presentation coming up at MEG and want to share success stories at the restaurant level. Can you all share what you've experienced or heard about what operators are doing?

Foodservice social media begins with understanding behavior. Listening before speaking is something we [should have] learned in elementary school. It's also what's needed before a strategy is created.

Best Aps! I'm looking for some of the most helpful online aps that everyone uses that relate to the restaurant business. I'd like to get them added to my phone!

This is a response from Andrew Baber in reply to my query about his previous comment.


Hey, I could have sworn I replied about the bit.ly and ow.ly sites but I can't find my response.

Basically they are to shorten links. When you try to link a particular article it can be difficult on something like twitter when you are limited to 140 characters.

Another benefit through bit.ly and ow.ly is that they will track clicks on links automatically (as long as you're logged in when you shorten it).
