About the event
We know we need to market our business on Instagram, but where do you start?
Launching a new brand or business opportunity can be exciting, but also incredibly challenging, as with limited budgets and resources for marketing it can feel overwhelming to know where to invest. Social media is a brilliant opportunity for businesses to reach their ideal audience and best of all, you can do this for free! It is just vital you choose the right platforms, have the know-how to use the tools and a strategy in place so your efforts are not wasted.
In this workshop I am going to introduce you to Instagram and give you the tools to create your own strategy so you have a solid understanding of what content you should be sharing on the platform, where and why. We will also run through the various tools and I can show you best practices on how to share content and how to optimise it for the best effect. Instagram as it is still one of the most effective social media platforms for small businesses to engage their ideal customers, build their brand awareness and get sales.
