Greetings!
 Social Media May, some beautiful weather, and Kombi have all arrived. Check out the KPBJ article, and although the whole Kombi gang is not here yet, come to happy hour tomorrow for an informal welcome of Brad and Francie, and we will be tossing a salad with greens from Leap Frog Farm (they can deliver veggies weekly to the office!). In other exciting news, for the first time the Tuesday@noon workshop was held in the new event room (which needs a new name), and we got a first test of streaming it with borrowed equipment and services (thanks, Robert Reinhardt).

| Build a social media marketing strategy
 Understand WHY you would use WHICH channels of social media and WHAT you want to get out of them. And of course you will want to know whether you are reaching your objectives over time. This month, our Tuesday@noon business skills seminars will help you develop your own social media marketing strategy. Register soon for all four sessions, and note that if we fill up, we will offer empty seats to drop-ins, so please arrive ready to go by noon! The workshops will be recorded, so if you miss one, you can catch up.
May 7, The building blocks of your social media strategy, with Leslie Schneider
May 14, Building a content marketing strategy, with Lena Scott
May 21, Creating a social media dashboard, with Tobias Eigen
May 28, Creative ideas in action, with Karen Klein

What's in a name?
Would you help us name the new "event" room? This new space is truly lovely, with natural light streaming in from three sides (yes, transom light floods the space just outside the windows of the new interior wall). We want it to communicate an essential resource for business on Bainbridge, soon to offer services for recording and live streaming that will extend your potential audience. But also the first place you would think of for a board meeting, a company meeting that needs to be away from the company, a public workshop, or a private reception (it has a private deck, after all!), and more. It could be a Bainbridge place name, a metaphor for innovation or new ways to work, or something that identifies the community and collaboration potential.
What do you think of The Madison Room? Studio X? Create Space? What is your idea? Click here to enter your preference in a super quick poll, or email suggestions to info@officexpats.com (so that both Jason and Leslie see it). Thanks!
