Oklahoma Governor’s Conference on Small Business 2011

By Becky McCray

I’m speaking at the Oklahoma Governor’s Conference on Small Business, on October 14, 2011. The conference theme is Igniting Small Business Leaders. Incendiary, but good! My topic is “The Social Network: Marketing Strategies for Today.”

If you dropped in from the conference, welcome! You’re in the right place for a copy of the slides and some resource links. (And if you’re a regular Small Biz Survival reader, feel free to eavesdrop on the goodies. In fact, there is still time to register if you’d like to attend.That’s one reason I posted this early.)
