The morning session of the e-commerce workshop will focus on understanding of the e-commerce landscape and the five essential things needed to get an online store off the ground. The afternoon session will build upon that, focusing on marketing the online store, emphasizing how digital marketing tools like MailChimp can drive online sales and Facebook Ads can target specific customers.
In addition, each participant will take away actionable items to put to immediate use, receive take-home training material, and receive one hour of email support post-workshop.
“This two-part e-commerce workshop is focused on developing strategies to sell to anyone, anywhere, and anytime,” said Messina. “Anyone with an interest in starting an online store can start here. We break it down into easy-to-understand, easy-to-implement pieces.”
Messina, who has more than 11 years of marketing training experience, will teach the workshop.
In addition to leading courses for the National Association of Women Business Owners, the National Sales Network, WESST and The Arrowhead Center, she also teaches a course at New Mexico State University focused on e-commerce for art students.
