FaceBook seems to have become an essential marketing and communications tool. 
In a tight economy, FaceBook offers free marketing to advertise your business or products.  Perhaps you’d like to recruit more business and join colleagues and business competitors in boasting about the number of “fans” who follow your page.  
Or maybe you’d like to find a way to stay in touch with children and grandchildren who seem to utilize FaceBook as the primary mode of communication now-days. 
To learn the steps for setting up FaceBook, plan to attend a workshop at the Blount County Public Library on Monday, February 22, at 6:30 p.m.
Conducted by Chris Gambill of Database Consultants, the workshop will guide attenders through the step-by-step process so that by the end of the evening, each participant can have his/her own FaceBook account, thereby joining the FaceBook initiative.
People who attend the workshop are encouraged to bring laptops with wireless capabilities so that they can work in real time to set up an account during the class.
Chris Gambill was recently recognized as the Ambassador of the Year by the Blount County Chamber of Commerce. 
Free and open to the public, the program is at the Blount County Public Library, located at 508 N. Cusick Street, Maryville.
