Karen Lloyd

Karen Lloyd is writer, photographer and avid micro-blogger in Northumberland County, whose work has been published across Canada, both in print news and online. It was in 2007 when Ms. Lloyd discovered the true power of social media as a way to connect with the outside world, for reasons beyond casual entertainment. "I was in Europe at the time and Facebook really allowed me to stay in touch with friends and family in a very simple, fast and convenient way," she said. Today Twitter is her communications tool of choice, a free micro-blogging service she uses often to tell the rest of the world what happening in her community. She has been working to promote Twitter in Northumberland County as a free service that can be used by businesses, non-profit organizations and government agencies to market themselves locally, nationally or internationally. Her course will help you harness the power of this social media tool to connect with your customers and prospects.
