Conservatory: The Subtle Art of Humble Brag on Social Media with Bettina Devin and Scott Ragle

Why should you be on social media at all these days? Scott & Bettina have both been active users of social media as it pertains to the entertainment industry, but both come from different perspectives. Are you a shrinking violet and not sure of how to start? Or are you focused and consistent with your branding and message? Do you want to get started on social media or are you a vet? Scott Ragle and Bettina Devin will show you the advantages and disadvantages and make suggestions as to what to embrace as well as what to avoid.

Note: Class size is limited to 12-15 participants.
