Our September event is a two-part program -- Social Media Best Practices for Gaining & Retaining Customers while Protecting Your Company’s Interests.
Part I: Social Media 101: Gain & Retain Customers
Presented by Emma Vaughn of Main Street Hub
As social media continues to grow, it plays an even larger role in how customers are discovering and interacting with businesses. Monitoring your business on these networks is a must, but it’s also becoming increasingly important to regularly produce high quality content in order to be found online. Seven out of the top eight factors for showing up in an organic search online rely on social media indicators (likes, fanbase etc). By learning best practices, you can improve customer acquisition, increase revenue and drive customer satisfaction and retention.
Attendees will learn:
-How local businesses are being found and chosen
-Location based marketing and how to leverage it
-How to create brand loyalty
-How to generate content on social media to engage and retain customers
Part II: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Oh My!! Minimizing Risk and Protecting the Company In The Midst of Rapidly Advancing Technology and Social Media
Presented by Michael Newhouse & Ruth Seroussi of Buchalter Nemer
Ever changing technologies continue to raise new concerns in the workplace: social media and privacy issues, employee monitoring issues, “bring your own device” or BYOD policies, potential wage/hour issues, protecting confidential and proprietary information, including trade secrets and customer lists, employee rights to engage in concerted activity, freedom of expression, among others.
Attendees will learn about:
- Offering strategies for protecting the Company’s interests within the confines of the law
- Building a culture that understands and respects the use of technology in the workplace

About C&O Restaurants
Good food is about more than just a meal. Journey back to the streets of Italy with the C&O Cucina, where food comes in gargantuan portions and community is part of the atmosphere. Our Rat Pack Martini Lounge sets us apart from our sister property, the C&O Trattoria. The bar is a great place to grab a drink and watch the game or just listen to the old crooners and enjoy classic pictures of Frank and Dean. Happy Hour is Monday-Thursday from 4:00-7:00. Monday we offer half priced bottles of wine. For Private Parties we have a beautiful outdoor covered patio area and a private banquet room upstairs. Located just east of Abbot Kinney at 3016 Washington Boulevard, we are open for lunch and dinner seven days a week. The C&O looks forward to welcoming you, and tantalizing your taste buds with our various dishes prepared to your specifications, and of course our Killer Garlic Rolls.
