Local University: Austin takes place on June 26, 2012 at the Blanton Art Museum.  CCAACC has partnered on this event for small business owners, presented in partnership with Google and SCORE Austin, will concentrate on the free resources and methods a small business can use to be better represented online.

The event is part of the national GetListed.org Local University series and features representatives from major search engines and respected leaders of the local search field.

Google, Bing, and many other search engines and online directories offer free business pages and tools that help small businesses get exposure on the internet, even if the business itself does not have a website. This event will explore these and other resources available to small business owners. The goal of the conference is to provide business owners actionable advice which allows them to leave the event with a clear understanding of what they can do for the online presence of their business.

Benjamin Pingel, a business manager who attended a recent Local University in Spokane, Washington, said “I was completely new to these concepts, but they were well explained. It was very easy to go to the office afterward and implement everything discussed.”

The event features two identical half-day sessions (8am – noon and 1pm – 5pm) on June 26, 2012. Additional details and registration information can be found by clicking here.
