Social Media is an effective way to market your small business, and with the right strategy, you can make sure your digital presence is engaging and working in your favour. This workshop will guide you through creating a social media content strategy for your business, including defining your intended audience, improving copy writing, and scheduling and repurposing content.

Keeping your strategy front of mind, you’ll learn about creating content that is authentic to you and your brand, what content is favoured by social media algorithms, fundamental design concepts, and how to attract and engage customers through content.
