I was scared of social media

I recently featured Robert Crane from CIAOPS with his advice to small businesses regarding Linkedin ( I hope I didn’t confuse him with the CIA in the USA!?) and I’m following it up with our own story about social media.

Two years ago we were promoting our online MYOB training courses knowing that the MYOB Setup course used training materials from version 15. I know, you might be thinking to yourself that MYOB is now past version 19.5 (if you are using the old naming convention), but if you know MYOB software you’d know that the navigation around the software didn’t change significantly until their latest version. Regardless, I was afraid!

I felt VERY comfortable keeping our training materials at that version, but I was terrified of people talking about it! Particularly in social media. Most of our courses now have updated videos, workbooks and knowledge reviews for the latest version (2012) so I am proud to announce it! We also offer both versions to all students (along with lifetime access) and the video format we use is not longer flash so the training videos can be viewed on an iPad.

You might not know that we also make a lot of our MYOB training videos available for free at YouTube and I was scared to share that information as well because I was scared that no one would then do our online MYOB courses! What I have learnt in the past few months is to embrace social media. My team and I are very proud of the MYOB courses we offer, our lifetime access, our money back guarantee so we are now announcing all our social media websites.

Please feel free to share your comments with us our Facebook page and connect with us at Linkedin and here’s to a successful social future to us all! Let’s not be afraid of social media any longer.
