Dear colleagues,

I'd like to invite you to the upcoming webinar on September 16th : Do's and Don'ts for translators when it comes to Social Media marketing.

Dear Anne,

I wanted to warn you about ProZ rules that prohibit us from overtly peddling our merchandise on this website. Then I clicked on the registration page link in your post and gathered that ProZ is somehow earning a bug too, so I guess you're not overstepping any ProZ rule.

Dear Anne,

I wanted to warn you about ProZ rules that prohibit us from overtly peddling our merchandise on this website. Then I clicked on the registration page link in your post and gathered that ProZ is somehow earning a bug too, so I guess you're not overstepping any ProZ rule.

The funniest part of your advertisment is were you welcome some basic knowledge of LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. Don't you have a solution for novices? I still giggle when I think back of the day that the Dutch HR giant Randstad bought offices on Second Life, with loads of real money.

Anne, if I formulate it like this I think I stand a fair chance of getting past the moderators.

Regards,
Gerard

Sorry, but I just had to laugh reading "bug".

Hi Gerard!
Well, it depends what we hear under "novice" - by basic knowledge I mean for example having already an account on LinkedIn, FB and Twitter and knowing what this is all about. Of course those who don't are more than welcome - the webinar will cover basic etiquette and strategies on those sites, not advanced strategies (maybe a next webinar?) - but we won't be going through the basics (e.g. what is the Twitter timeline, what's a news feed, etc.)

Let me rephrase this - this is not a beginners webinar, nor an advanced. It's for "advanced beginners" to "intermediate"

I hope this clarifies!

Regards,
Anne
