Presenters will include two online advertising experts from LocalDirective.com, a local firm that creates and manages local search marketing programs for companies nationwide. Chief Executive Officer Lisa Maier and Senior Vice President Advertising Solutions Mike Freedman will discuss lessons learned from building and managing marketing online efforts for thousands of American companies.
"It is important to bring Business Development Programs such as this to our members" said Joe Alpine, President West Pasco Chamber of Commerce.
"During challenging economic times, it's even more important that businesses make the best possible decisions with limited marketing budgets," said Maier. "We're helping local business leaders gain valuable information about online marketing tactics that could help them gain more business leads at a lower cost."
Adds Freedman, "Online advertising is sometimes called 'the most complex form of advertising' for a reason. One of our goals with this seminar is to educate local business owners to empower them to make good online advertising decisions."
