There is no denying that using social media and the internet to market products has enormous benefits to businesses of any size and in any industry, including those in agriculture of course. Those benefits include, among others, productive building of brand awareness, audience targeting and engagement, and cost benefits (usually free or at a low cost to the user). Understanding how to best take advantage of what social media marketing (or SMM) has to offer your business can make all the difference in launching a SMM campaign that delivers positive results.

Learn just how easy and rewarding SMM can be for your agricultural business with “It Just Clicks: Social Media Marketing and Agricultural Products”, a workshop hosted by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oswego County (CCE Oswego) on August 25, 2022. Guest speaker Amanda Bickford, CCE Local Foods Marketing Specialist, explains how to use specific social media platforms for an effective SSM campaign. Facebook, Instagram, Google Business Profile are covered in more detail, with other SM platforms and website creation also being touched on.
