Event

Tuesday 28 March 2006

Learn the skills and strategies required to make your business succeed in the Internet search engines and trading on eBay … in one day, in plain English.

This free one day seminar for Rushcliffe businesses will give you the skills and confidence you need to kick-start your Internet business ambitions. It’s a dynamic, practical day, with real life examples. We’ll keep the group small, so that we can discuss your own e-business needs and issues.

Join us at The Sanctuary restaurant near Radcliffe on Trent where we will make tough Internet subjects easy to master.

We'll start the day with coffee from 9:00, followed by the first session starting at 9:30: Search Engine Secrets. We’ll have a buffet lunch from 12:30 to 13:30. And then at 13:30 we will have our second session: eBay Means Sales. The event will end at 16:30 with an opportunity to ask more questions and carry on networking with other Rushcliffe businesses.
