Rural Online Initiative
Ecommerce for Rural Business Course
This is a blended course, combining online work with interactive workshops. This course is designed to get your business online and selling quickly.
We’ll first do an audit of your current online presence. We’ll look at things like your Google My Business Listing, your social media presence, and how you’re doing on review websites. Then, we’ll look for ways to improve your visibility online and strengthen your current presence.
If you are currently selling products or services in a brick and mortar location and don’t have a business website, Ecommerce website, or online sales channel, this course will help you kick-start your online business. You will learn how to set up a business website or an Ecommerce website specifically for selling your products.
Course Format
- The coursework is completed over a one-month period.
- There are four live weekly video workshops.
- The workshops start the first week of class and will be held on Wednesdays at 1 p.m. Mountain Time.
