Google LogoGoogle Workshops Offered

The Illinois Small Business Development Center at JJC will host two interactive seminars called "Google 101" in October to help small business owners learn how to use Google tools to reach more customers, understand what customers are searching for, and operate more efficiently. 
 

Two three-hour workshops will be held on the JJC Main Campus, one on Oct. 20 from 6 to 9 p.m. and one on Oct. 21 from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. 
 

"The great thing about this workshop is that Google employees will be conducting it," Amy Murphy, JJC director of corporate and community services, said. "These are the people who know all the features Google offers the small business owner. The course should be very informative." 
 

Murphy said that the workshop will also cover the best online marketing practices, including the use of Google AdWords, using the right keywords, and writing compelling ads.

"It will even cover Google Analytics and Google Maps. It is an ideal workshop for small business owners," she added. 
 

For more information, call (815) 280-1400, email sbdc@jjc.edu or register online at www.trainingupdate.org. Cost to attend is $25.

 

The Illinois Small Business Development Center at Joliet Junior College is one of the small business service providers in the Illinois Entrepreneurship Network and is funded in part through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration and the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.
