The seminar is free to the public and aims to teach local small business owners how to optimize their presence and engage customers on the world’s largest social network.

The seminar will kick off with welcoming remarks from Congressman Jim Renacci and Strongsville Mayor Thomas P.

“As the world’s largest social network, there are over 1.9 billion people worldwide on Facebook. For Ohio small business owners that is over 1.9 billion potential customers to reach,’ said Congressman Jim Renacci. “This seminar provides the opportunity for Ohioans to learn how to take advantage of this widely-used, accessible, and strategic platform to boost their businesses.”
