Patch Offers Free Workshop for Businesses

Update: Note, we have moved the time to the afternoon.

Patch is bringing its popular Main Street U workshop for business owners to Danville from 1-3 p.m. Sept. 26.

The free event will be held at Danville's Town Meeting Hall. Join us to learn how to improve your online presence via Patch and other social media platforms. (Note, we moved the date of the workshop to avoid conflicting with another business event.)

Space is limited, so RSVP by filling out the form with this article.

This educational event so far this year has reached more than 260 Bay Area business owners and nonprofits.

The interactive workshop covers social media, business directories, blogging and telling your story on Patch. Participants will enjoy light refreshments and will be eligible for a door prize and giveaways.

Reviews so far of previous Patch Main Street U events have been stellar. Recent participants said:

"What a GREAT Presentation to the PATCH Community of 50+ Santa Cruz Small Businesses and Professional Service Providers, packing the three workshops... Articulate, impactful, relevant."

"This was an awesome workshop. Quick, to the point, employees willing to help. Thanks!"
