As a social media specialist, I can bring your organization an entire marketing package.I was the marketing department for KCDEE - building workforce skills to help organizations succeed. KCDEE is a federally funded workforce development agency. While there I made the most of the outreach budget, by becoming a social media specialist, learning to use all of the most current tools to reach out to individuals and business in the service area. I used MS Office Suite and Adobe CS5 to provide graphic design for the marketing materials and web components. Using the vast array of social media tools opened the organization's reach to job seekers and business owners alike. By being able to do all these tasks in house, I saved KCDEE well over $150K in consulting fees.Speaking to community organizations is another form of outreach that I provide, as well as, public relation activities, internal communications, event planning, and photography.I created and teach a hands-on Learning LinkedIn workshop for anyone needing to learn the power of this professional networking tool. In 2011, I taught over 550 people the benefits of the network. I can provide these sessions for your group or one-on-one.CREEKWOOD HOMES is a family owned custom home building business.
