From the corner barbershop to a Fortune 500 company, the internet is becoming a bigger and bigger part of everyone’s marketing every day. And with the current economic situation, we all need to squeeze every possible once of return out of our marketing spending.

"How Google Can Help Your Small Business Grow," is not so... much a “how to” on setting up an account and marketing a web site via Google AdWords (because it’s actually fairly intuitive). Instead it covers the strategy and logic of the “why to”, “when to” and “what to” of Google AdWords as a marketing tool with a dash of “how to” to get you started.

Our speaker is Matt Harlow, who worked with Google to develop the program and continues to work with them on it’s refinement. He’s given this talk 10 or so times since the first of the year and works between every presentation both to refine the message and keep up with Google’s ever changing offerings.
