Welcome to the Social Media for Home-Based Business Blog!
CALD migrant women in the Lakemba area are motivated to improve their families’ lives by starting or improving a home-based business and require training and support to realise their ambitions. Social media provides home-based business with a low-cost or free platform through which to promote products and services. Our program aims to provide the skills required to plan and implement a creative social media strategy.
The program will be delivered over 10 weeks and we’ll use a combination of face to face training and social media tools to connect, communicate and learn.

Hi, I'm Pei-Shan. I created www.ashnjuls.com.au about three years ago offering alternative and affordable eco products to like-minded families. I hope to learn effective ways of engaging my customers in social media from this course. I started promoting my business facebook page last year but still not sure how to get customers to 'like' me. I see my competitors giving out big discounts through their facebook page but I don't really want to go down that track because all my prices are very reasonable already. I do however, give away one product every week to one lucky customer who leave comments on certain post. I use You Tube to demonstrate how to use my products, which I find to be a great tool. I would like to learn how to make Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and You Tube work effectively together.
ReplyDeletehi, im still at the first step in promoting my products. I sell luxury phone covers and accessories. I would like promote my business through social media, so hopefully by the end of this course, i would have successfully started my business.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to better understanding Social Media and its possible benefits to any business I run by the end of the course.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with Beech. I am at early stage of doing business and I do hope through Social Media course I get better knowledge to run businesses.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see your comments here. What a great course this is. I wish I could do it too. Feel free to contact me should you wish to make an appointment. Otherwise, I'll see you on Wednesday afternoons.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great course as we are learning how to use social media through practical uses of it. I hope I can create my website and eventually get millions of hits :-)
ReplyDeleteI am interested in using social media to build my business profile and internet presence.
Jurnii with me as I learn how to use this fantastic Social Media course to market my online jewellery business www.jurnii.net.au (website coming soon).
ReplyDeleteThanks to the 4C's and Sydney Community College for putting together this great initiative!

DeleteDear Social Media Gurus,
ReplyDeleteI am awaiting you at the Cottage on Wednesdays, from 12.30-3pm. You can get any support related to ELLN. I'm looking forward to hearing form you.

Most people misunderstand the phrase "home based business". They think that these businesses will earn them only a few dollars and will be quite lower than their regular income. The story is actually quite different. Most people who start a home based business end up earning money which is much beyond their regular income.
