With the explosion of social media and digital marketing in recent years, many businesses have expressed frustration at just how fast the pace of change is. So, in an effort to support the veterinary profession, Veterinary Business Development (VBD) is delivering two presentations at BSAVA Congress to help empower practices when it comes to digital marketing.
Each presentation will run daily from 5 to 7 April 2018 as part of the industry-led exhibitor stream at the Premier Lounge at Arena Birmingham.
Your VIP guide to growing your practice with social media
The first session will offer a focus on social media – both organic and paid. It will be delivered by VBD digital marketing assistant Amelia Costanzo, who brings with her a wealth of experience from working on client campaigns.
