This four hour workshop is perfect for complete beginners to the platform. We cover everything that is included in our popular Using Instagram for your Business workshop but we go through things at a slower pace so it's easier to take in for anyone that is new to Instagram.

Boasting over 1 billion monthly active users, Instagram is one of the fastest growing social media platforms and definitely not just for the kids! There's no better time than now to get started with Instagram.

• How to make the most of hashtags on Instagram.

• We'll look at how to create an identity for your business on Instagram so your posts are instantly recognisable.

• We'll teach you how to use Instagram Stories.
