Social media marketing brown bag steps in to fill a cancelation
Greetings!
The Tuesday Brown Bag topic scheduled for this week needs to be moved to January. No worries! I heard from a few of you that there is interest in learning about the social media marketing tips I received a few weeks ago at the conference held at Islandwood. And I recently helped a member plan a new e-newsletter, so this should be fun. Feel free to send me a copy of your latest newsletter if you want feedback, and we can even brainstrom with the group for good ideas.
 | | A tool like ColorSchemer Galleria can help your social media marketing look better! |
By the way, one of the struggles I had with modifying this e-mail template once-upon-a-time was changing the color scheme easily. Two free resources I picked up at the conference are a color picker and a color scheme generator.
Social media marketing is being touted as a do-or-die effort for small business. What do you think? How do you use social media (or do you at all)? Invite a friend to this free discussion, noon to 1:30.
See you on Tuesday?

New monitors, and new benefits for full-timers
 | | New wide-screen monitors for members |
Check out our new wide-screen 24" LED monitors! Jason bought a couple for use by members on a first-come first-served basis. Just ask us if there's one available the next time you are in. Even better, do you want to be able to call us and RESERVE a monitor? You can, if you become a full-time member. We want to bribe and coddle full time members with new benefits(because, well, we want 10 full-time members by January 31, remember?). Sign up for full time and we'll also throw in a locking pedestal file cabinet. What else would you want to make this your workplace home? Please let us know; we get our best ideas from our members. And how much is a full-time membership, by the way? The normal $320/month is only $272 through January 2012, and you can pre-purchase up to six months with that discount. Give us a call, 206 780-2177, and we will make it so. |

Webinars, videoconferences, and [your idea here]
The event room has seen some good action with the packed Go Solar presentations and an interactive Time Bank webinar, and each time we see new possibilities. So we've now added to the projector and Bluetooth sound bar system: cordless microphones and a wireless mouse/pointer. You too could be like Oprah or Donahue, presenting with a microphone answering questions from attendees on a roving mic. We've had several webinars hosted here at OfficeXpats as well -- let us know how we can help you! |

| Who We Are | |
OfficeXpats on Bainbridge Island is a workplace solution beyond commuting to the corporate office or working from home.

OfficeXpats is located in the Pavilion on Madison, just a 10-minute walk from the ferry terminal. We hope to help you in your quest for 'new ways to work.'
