So you’re online: you have a blog, or a website. Now how do you find your audience? Whether you’re looking for like-minded souls to read your writing or share recipe tips or whether you’re looking to spread the reach of your organization with a more robust online presence, this class will give you valuable tips and tools to help you find your audience. Topics include:

• How can you use social media to best effect?

• Content: how much is too much?

• How much should you be “yourself” and how much should you give people what you think they want?

The class is sponsored by the Twin Cities Media Alliance, a nonprofit organization advocating media literacy and community connections.

When? Tuesday, July 12, 7:00-9:00 p.m.

Where? Twin Cities Daily Planet office, 2600 E. Franklin Ave., Minneapolis 55406.
