SUMMARY:Conversation Corner - Using Pinterest to Market Your Business
DESCRIPTION:Conversation Corner is our informal gathering we host with a combination of in-person attendees at PEIBWA’s Rural Women’s Business Centre and online participants who join through Zoom. \nOn Friday June 26\, Robyn Gallant will be joining us to talk about Using Pinterest to Market Your Business.   \nAre you curious about Pinterest? Do you want to improve your engagement on Pinterest? Taking advantage of increased downtime during the COVID-19 pandemic\, Robyn decided to power-up some of her skills and knowledge. \nWorking from a favorite idea of hers that “if you get told you do something too frequently\, you can probably get paid for it!” she naturally fell to looking at how Pinterest is affecting new-world marketing. She has successfully completed several courses for Pinterest Marketing Specialists and has begun coaching clients across PEI on how to increase traffic to their website using this playful platform. \nRobyn will share advice\, ideas\, tips and tricks on using Pinterest to expand your online reach. \nRobyn is the founder and CEO of Eventurous Consulting. Backed by over ten years of event experience\, Robyn was raised on PEI and studied stage management at Acadia University. She believes that events should be stress-free for her clients – you make the decisions\, she’ll make it happen. Also trained in the Art of Hosting\, a method of outside-the-box social collaboration\, she comes equipped with the tools to draw out the important conversations and increase meeting effectiveness \nNOTE: This session will be offered both virtually AND in-person at PEIBWA’s Rural Women’s Business Centre in Central Bedeque. \nPre-registration is required (limited spots available for in-person attendance to comply with social distancing protocols).  If you are joining us online for the session\, you will be provided with a Zoom meeting link once you complete your online registration. \nConversation Corner is a FREE program offered by the PEI Business Women’s Association (PEIBWA) and both members and non-members are welcome to attend. \nDo you have a business or workplace topic on your mind that you would like to discuss?
