Inland Empire Business Owner and Columnist to Speak at Palm Springs Event

July 14, 2010 - PRLog -- Local business owner and Inland Empire columnist Kathy Bowling will be the featured speaker at the Palm Springs Hospitality Association luncheon on Thursday, July 15 at 11:30 a.m. at Spencer’s on the Mountain, located at 701 West Baristo Road in Palm Springs. President of Lake Arrowhead advertising agency Mountain Marketing Group, Bowling will discuss, “Social Media, Marketing and Your Business: Why social media IS your business.”

A featured columnist for RIMOFTHEWORLD.net, the Biz Press and the Press Enterprise, Bowling will share ideas for stretching marketing budgets by entering the social media arena.

“The good and bad news about social media is that small business owners have access to the exact same platforms as multi-national corporations. So, when it comes to using social media for public relations and marketing, the playing fields are equal. The bad news is that most small business owners don’t understand how to properly participate in social media,” says Bowling.
