There are many benefits of being a member of the Simplify Your Social Media Meetup Group.

I’d love to have you check out our group at our next meeting on Tuesday, March 14 at 1:30 p.m. Mountain Time. Lori Dubois of Marketing Troubadour (featured in the photo above) will present “Email Marketing: Dinosaur or Life Saver?” Here’s a link to RSVP. https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-simplify-your-social-media/events/291566659/

Who is the Group For and What Happens at the Meetings?

I created this Meetup group as a way to help business people learn more about social media. The people I find who most benefit from attending our meetings typically say “yes” to one or more of these questions:

  • Do you want to learn more about social media in a safe, low-key setting?
  • Do your competitors have a stronger social media presence than you?
  • Do you get frustrated when people tease you for not being “social media savvy?”

Since the group started in January 2018, hundreds of people have attended one or more meetings. Currently, there are nearly 700 members in the Meetup group.

The group started as an in-person gathering at a library in the Denver Metro Area. We moved our meetings to Zoom in April 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. It turned out that meeting virtually was a positive for our group, as so many more people could attend.

We have speakers from all over the country sharing their expertise on a wide range of topics. Along with giving tips on specific social media sites, speakers have shared tips on such topics as:

  • Email marketing
  • Podcasts
  • Goal setting
  • Use of images in digital marketing
  • Video marketing

Why Learn About Social Media Through a Meetup Group?

  • In addition to learning from the group facilitator and the guest speaker, members learn from one another.
  • Questions other members bring up can offer information on topics you would like to know more about.
  • Learning in groups provides networking opportunities.

What is the Format of This Group?

  • Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 1:30 – 2:30 p.m. Mountain Time.
  • There is no charge to attend.
  • At the start of the meeting, attendees briefly introduce themselves.
  • Introductions are followed by an interactive presentation on a social media site or related topic.
  • We wrap up with an announcement about the next month’s meeting.
