Nerdwise was conceived in the summer of 2009 by Founder & CEO, Patrick Baynes. As a recent LinkedIn alumnus and a budding technology entrepreneur, Patrick understood the leverage a platform like Facebook offered businesses to engage their best customers; yet often, their social accounts were rarely updated.

Busy business owners are often left to either try and manage social marketing on their own or spend thousands each month to hire someone they can trust. Patrick knew there must be a better solution, and, local business owners should be able to engage their customers daily on Facebook and other social media without breaking the bank.

The concept was incubated until 2014 when Patrick Baynes and Co-Founder Michael Coupe teamed up to launch Nerdwise across the restaurant, fitness, and medical industries. In a short time, the company was serving up low cost, high-performance content and on-demand pro services to brands and businesses worldwide.

By engaging new and existing customers, Nerdwise provides businesses an easy and effective daily reach to their target audiences on Facebook, Instagram, Google, and LinkedIn. Working as an extension of your team, Nerdwise will design & execute strategies to meet your business goals.

Come join us on January 29th to hear more from Co-Founder Michael "Coupe" about how Nerdwise became the preferred marketing partner for 500+ local businesses and dozens of franchises across the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australia.

Coupe will share:

• Why everyone (yes, you, too!) NEEDS a social media strategy
• Why it's hard for franchise owners to differentiate themselves and how Nerdwise can help
• How small business owners can create a large business social media presence
• ...and much more
