Rebecca Johnson, Speaker Bio

Rebecca Johnson is the founder of Get Networking Now, Rebecca-Johnson.com and My Social Media Pro! She is an expert at showing entrepreneurs, management teams, and small business owners how to effectively network, build relationships and leverage those relationships to grow their business on and off-line.
Rebecca holds a Bachelor of Science in Social Work, as she has always had a passion for helping people grow and prosper. While working in the Social Work arena, she found herself enjoying the art of “relationship building” and found a passion for taking an idea and working to bring it to “life”. This sparked a chain reaction of ideas and Rebecca quickly found herself being an “accidental entrepreneur”.
Noticing that there was a missing resource in the Sacramento area, she launched Get Networking Now! with a web design partner (whom she met through networking) in 2007. Her goal at the time was to allow business owners like herself, to have an online “one-stop-shop” for finding the opportunities to build a supportive network in her community. It has since blossomed into a full service on and offline promotional company helping businesses find creative ways to market their products and services. Get Networking Now! provides small and medium sized businesses with resources, and promotional opportunities, as well as business development groups in the Sacramento area.
Just as technology and the marketing industry has grown and changed, Rebecca has continued to master the skills of social networking and Internet marketing. She and her husband were one of the first companies in the Sacramento area to offer training and support for business owners regarding these new mediums. She has taught numerous workshops and webinars, as well as consulted with numerous companies and franchises regarding their online needs. She is also the first company in the nation to offer a new technology, the iSnap Social Media Kiosk to businesses wishing to build the bridge between their customers and their online marketing system.
Rebecca is a public speaker in her community and promotes business networking education as a keynote speaker for events, chambers, and universities. Rebecca has created opportunities for other speakers by offering opportunities and classes through Get Networking Now!
