What's everyone blogging about??

With a major shift in marketing trends many businesses are using social media to reach their target markets more effectively and with less expense. Many Parry Sound Area Chamber members have jumped on the social media band wagon and are using it very effectively.

The Chamber has been using this blog for several months and we find it to be a great way to fill content on our facebook page as well as to share business news/updates by publishing our weekly Tuesday e-mail.

Today we would like to put a spotlight on some of our members using blogs to populate their social media outlets and drive customers to their business by showcasing their products/services.
