Program Topic: Beyond the Scroll: The Anti-Social Media Strategy for Turning Likes into Leads with Briana Codella, Social Media Manager + Freelance Marketer, Bri Co Creates
Plus Member Spotlight: Carol Vincie
In a world where businesses fight for attention online, the real challenge isn’t just getting likes—it’s turning engagement into real customers. This event will show you how to use social media strategically to build genuine connections, drive people offline, and grow your business. If you’re tired of posting without seeing real results, this is your chance to learn how to make social media work for you, not the other way around.
TOPIC DETAILS:
- Understand Your Audience – Learn how to truly connect with your community, speak their language, and build relationships that turn into real business opportunities.
- Create Content That Captures Attention – Discover how to craft visually compelling and emotionally engaging content that stops the scroll and builds trust with potential customers.
- Followers ≠ Customers – Uncover the biggest misconception in social media marketing and learn how to turn engagement into actual business growth.
- The Power of Authentic Connection – Find out why people buy from people, not just brands, and how to use social media to build real relationships that drive sales.
- Beyond the Screen: Moving People to Action – Learn how to bridge the gap between online engagement and in-person business, getting people from social media into your store, office, or service.
- A Smarter Social Strategy – Walk away with a clear, actionable approach to using social media effectively—without wasting time on content that doesn’t convert.
