One of the most common email requests I receive is
“Can you recommend any Facebook Marketing Courses ?”
And whilst it’s fairly easy to point people in the right direction of good online resources, the majority of people want to attend a sit down type course in a classroom.
But I don’t tend to recommend these , as it’s always going to be more expensive than learning online.
Id also be wary of lots of corporate training companies ”band-wagoning” on Facebook and then just teaching you basic theory about social media…rather than teaching you the real hardcore marketing techniques that work extremely well.
However, if you are determined to spend a few hundred or even a few thousand dollars on a classroom based course, be sure to ask for a comprehensive contents list before you pay anything.
If you’re looking for a benchmark to compare it to, here’s the contents list from my Social Media Marketing 2.0 ebook, that’s just $29.95, and so you should be looking for major advancement on these topics to justify spending a lot more.
