4-2 FB Facebook Webinar

 Webinar Used to Present Social Media Training to Farmers Across Idaho

 With over 800 million active users on Facebook alone, it’s hard to deny the marketing potential of social media.  However, for those new to using social media for marketing and promotion purposes, it can be a complicated process to navigate. That is why the Idaho State Department of Agriculture hosted a free Webinar (online meeting) a while back, to help small farms involved in direct marketing, farmers markets or agritourism learn more about using these valuable and free marketing methods.

Here’s Lacey Menasco, Idaho State Department of Agriculture trade specialist. “With the growing popularity of social media and shrinking advertising budgets, it’s imperative that those in agriculture learn how to effectively use these marketing tools. Also things like Facebook offer a great opportunity to reach the general public with the true story of agriculture.”
