From Craig Cannings, President, VAClassroom
Date: September 3, 2010

Hi friend,

Since first launching our Social Marketing training program in November of 2008, it has been a great pleasure to watch many of our graduates carve out successful pathways with their new social media skills and services. It has really validated that we are on the right track with the training courses and programs we are offering at VAClassroom!

We have greatly appreciated receiving literally hundreds of testimonials and success stories from so many over the last year.  We have loved hearing all the wonderful accomplishments after taking our Social Marketing Training Course!

I never tire of hearing success stories like these:



"The social media marketing class I took a year ago was instrumental in the direction my business took. When reviewing my business plan with the SBDC, my counselor saw the note about social media and asked if I could teach it. She marched me right over to the continuing education department on campus and signed me up to teach classes. That has been the springboard to becoming the expert in my town. I do lunch presentations, CEU training sessions, and sell social media packages. People call me all the time to teach or speak about why and how to use SM as part of their overall marketing plan. So thank you."

"Last year I had the opportunity to take the inaugural VAClassroom Social Media Specialist course, and it has changed the course of my business. Now I'm teaching Introduction to Social Media Concepts and some hands-on walk-through classes for my local business community. I've partnered with other local businesses and networks, I have several other classes in development, and I am loving every minute of this new passion and opportunity. If it hadn't been for VAClassroom, I might never have found this new business direction that has me busier, happier and more fulfilled than ever!"

"I am so glad I finally decided to sign up for the VAClassroom courses. VAClassroom has perfected the tools that I need to run a successful VA business. Within 2 weeks after finishing my Social Media Marketing Certification I had a new client. The certification makes a big impact and gave me the credibility I needed. Additionally, the knowledge about Social Media Marketing helped me to market my business even though we are stationed right now outside the U.S. Thank you, VAClassroom!"

So, Why Are We Launching a 2010 Edition of our Social Marketing Training Course?

While we added some relevant and timely updates to our Social Marketing Course in 2009, a few key factors led to the necessity of launching our new 2010 Edition of the Social Marketing Specialist Training Course:

. Social Media continues to grow and evolve at a rapid rate.

You might find it interesting to know that when we first launched our training program in November 2008,  Facebook had just under 200 million members. Today, they are over 500 million and growing at a rate of 250,000 a day.

Equally as interesting, while Twitter was the Social Networking Rock Star of the first half of 2009, we have now seen a steady flattening of their growth curve. Does this mean that Twitter is starting to wane in effectiveness for businesses? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

But, these evolving trends and changes have prompted us to launch this new training program to help you meet the demands of your clients.

. New Social Media tools and applications are being added daily.

It is very difficult to keep track of the Social Media rising stars and the new social networking tools that are emerging! Since you are busy entrepreneurs, we want to minimize your training time by providing you with the pertinent information to stay current and up-to-date with your skills!


.  Social Media growth explodes amongst the local business community.


Social Media has officially gone local. Businesses in your community have begun to recognize the power of this low-cost marketing channel, but are still trying to figure out how to utilize Social Media for their business.  Over the last few months, we have seen a number of cool local social media tools rise in popularity such as Yelp.com and Meetup.com. Here is your opportunity to help them leverage these powerful tools to make their business flourish in 2010!


.  Social Media Optimization is now fully integrated with SEO activities.

With the recent inclusion of Social status updates into Bing and Google Search listings, not to mention the indexing power of Facebook Fan pages, we are seeing a radical shift in the way businesses will optimize their search campaigns in 2010 and beyond. The new face of Social Media Optimization will be covered in this training program.


.  Online Reputation Management is shifting to "Community Building".


In our first 2008 Social Media Training Program, our Online Reputation Management module focused mostly on monitoring and protecting your client’s online reputation. While this is still a crucial piece of the puzzle, businesses are recognizing that reputation management is more about building great community with their target audience as opposed to just “putting out fires”. In our training, we will discuss strategies for helping your clients effectively build a community with their consumer audience.

These are just a few of the factors that have compelled us to release a 2010 version of our Social Marketing Specialist program!





What is the Real Value of taking the 2010 Edition of the Social Marketing Training Program?
