As of last year, 9 out of 10 adults in the UK owned a smartphone, but do you feel you’re using it to its full potential? We’ve come a long way since the days of Nokia 3310s and spending hours playing Snake. The modern smartphone is much more than just a computer in your pocket. It’s a communication tool, and video camera, a podcasting tool and more. In fact, more recent social platforms such as TikTok are almost exclusively populated by smartphones and tablet created content, meaning that little device you have in your pocket is key to your entire content marketing strategy.

In this interactive workshop with Liz Hardwick from DigiEnable, we will give you everything you need to make full use of your smartphone, launch a TikTok channel and create your first video. If you think TikTok is all dance trends and young people, you couldn’t be more wrong! With the number of users expected to reach 10 million in the UK by the end of this year, it’s a platform that businesses cannot afford to ignore.

This session is for businesses, charities or other organisations based in Lancashire who’d like to get started on TikTok, or Lancashire-based individuals who’d like to develop their digital marketing skills.

*Please download the TikTok app from your app store ahead of this session - we suggest using one device to practice your videos with and another to join the workshop with via Zoom e.g. a laptop/computer.
