“Be genuine, be relevant, provide good information and get people to want to come back.”

At our April BSN Social Business Networking Katharine Halberg, digital Strategist shared a number of very practical, very real dos and don’ts for our audience.  Katherine also covered the concept of ‘position zero’, Google My Business, and the effect that having a site which is mobile / touch optimized can have on creating great user engagement.
