Talk 2 Dan Bitesize Media Workshops

What to Expect at the Workshop?

Topics

Networking

Young creatives have never plucked up the courage to engage with other people in the media industry, and do not know how to spark up a conversation or write up follow-up emails after attending a media event.

You will go through the definition of networking, advice from Industry professionals, the Networking Do’s and Don’ts and complete a Networking Activity.

Online Presence

Young creatives have issues with engaging with audiences via social media or other online platforms and struggle to build following and engagement.

You will go through the definition of Online Presence, the Online Presence Do’s and Don’ts and complete an Online Presence Activity.

Application

Young creatives struggle with ‘Standing out from the crowd’ in their application, and usually just copy and paste the same application to multiple job opportunities!

You will go through advice from Industry professionals, how to dissect a JD and complete a Covering Letter Activity.

Interview

Young creatives think this is the worst part of any job or opportunity. Again, how do they stand out from the crowd or not fumble with their words and try and impress the interviewer?

You will go through the Types of Interviews, Interview advice from Industry professionals, and Interview Preparing Answers Activity.

Feedback

Young creatives don't even bother to get feedback from employers and are already copy and pasting their applications to the next available job opportunity before even looking to see what companies want to see.

You will go through the Types of Feedback, Feedback Advice from Industry Professionals and a Back-to-Back Activity.

Branding

Young creatives want to start their own brands but have no idea what they must do to build their own brand from scratch.

You will go through the definition of branding, as well as a Core Values Activity.

Freelancing

Young creatives have multiple jobs and are unaware of the benefits of freelance work and how to make freelance work, work for them!

You will go through the definition and how to expense and invoice.

Pricing

Young creatives do not know their worth in the media industry - they are not sure how to price their business and often end up under-pricing or overpricing and this causes a huge imbalance with their brand's accounts or even customers.

You will go through the pricing pain points, the pricing do’s and don’ts and pricing activity.

Dan will help Young Creatives recognise the pain points that they are going through in the media industry, and we are able to help by delivering these to address them!
