Buz.FM Sets Lunch & Learn At Davenport University Warren Campus: Buz.FM Inc. continues to research how consumers purchase merchandise using social media and search. In today's marketing world, it is now a requirement for any company to have a Facebook Fan Page. For most companies, a successful Facebook Fan Page is measured by "Likes". Yet a "Like" traditionally does not equate to revenue generation. Therefore, how does a company monetize a Facebook Fan Page? On Wednesday, Jan. 16 from noon to 2 p.m., Buz.FM, Elite Success Partners and Winning Futures will bring to Davenport University Stephen Sadler, President of Buz.FM and author of "Exposure to Closure." He will focus his discussion on Digital Marketing techniques and how to "BEE Ever Present" when someone is searching for you. As an added bonus, he will take some time to present some new technology that will turn your Facebook Fan Page into a streaming marketplace. Lunch and networking will begin at noon. Presentations will begin at 12:30 p.m. Please RSVP by calling Gary at (248) 371-1655, ext. 106, by the close of business Monday, Jan. 14. Davenport University is located at 27650 Dequindre Road, Warren. The cost is $20 by credit card in advance or $25 at the door. Proceeds from this event to be presented to Winning Futures.
