09:30 - 10:30Culture is Key – Recruiting People Who Match Your Business
Recruiting staff isn’t all about getting the most skilled person, it’s often about finding the person who best fits your business values and culture. Sarah will show you some techniques for creating job ads, developing interview questions, and analysing applications, that will help you find the people who are the right fit for your business.
13:15 - 14:45Facebook is Free – Learning to Market on Facebook
There is a lot to know about clever marketing, but when you are starting out in business it’s important to know how to use the FREE marketing at your disposal. Social media is free and the easiest way to reach a broad or selected target market. Kim will use this session to focus on teaching you how to set up a Facebook page, how to construct and advert, and how to upload it onto your Facebook page. Bring your laptop to this session, it will be very hands-on!

15:00 - 16:00Managing Those Networking Nerves
It would be rare to find a person who is not nervous in a room full of people they don’t know. It helps, therefore, to have some techniques under you belt to help you start and maintain a conversation with a complete stranger, or someone you need to meet to advance your business. Scott will walk through a series of techniques and strategies that will help you appear more confident and engaging when you are at a function and faced with the choice of working the room or hiding in the corner.
