The numbers are staggering.

As you can see, if your business isn’t on these social media platforms you’re potentially missing out on a huge market.  And while setting up these platforms may sound daunting the Pillars of Lakewood are here to help!

Over the next few weeks, Pillars will be publishing quick and to the point tutorials on how to get yourself and your business up and running on these social media outlets.  We’ll cover the following topics:

  • Personal Facebook profiles
  • Facebook fan pages & groups
  • Personal LinkedIn profiles
  • LinkedIn business pages
  • Google Places
  • Twitter
  • YouTube
  • And much more! (Google +, Foursquare, Yelp, MySpace, etc.)

What’s the catch?

No catch.  Nothing to buy, no one will call, no groups to join (though if you want to join us on Facebook we’ll make sure you get the info that much faster!)  It’s our mission at Pillars is to make the city of Lakewood, “More conducive to business development by fostering a vibrant, engaged demographic of 20-40 year olds.“  Don’t believe me?  Check out the About Us page – it’s right there!

Get ready… we’re about to give you all the tools you’ll need to take your business to the next level.  You’ll finally be part of the social media movement!  Stay tuned!
