This full day workshop is perfect for small business owners, solopreneurs and particularly busy parents juggling a business with raising a family.

Without a clear defined social media strategy for your business your efforts on social media could be wasted.

• Tips and advice on researching your competitors and learning from their successes and mistakes.

• Refining your business tone of voice.

Why do I need a social media strategy for my business?

“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” – Benjamin Franklin

So many small business owners feel they need to simply have a presence on social media and if they post occasionally, that will be enough to see a return on the time they are investing in it. But a comprehensive social media strategy can help you grow a community that is genuinely interested in your business, which in turn can help drive sales and of course help you achieve your business goals.
