Credit Karma presented by Ebony Cochran

Thursday Trainings are weekly, in-person learning experiences designed for creators, founders, and brand builders who want more than motivation—they want education they can actually use.

Each Thursday, The Social Media Store transforms into a learning lab where modern skills meet real-world application. Topics rotate week-to-week, giving members and guests access to a broad range of knowledge needed to grow both creatively and financially in today’s digital economy.

This is where content, business, and technology intersect.

What Thursday Trainings Cover

Topics are intentionally diverse, practical, and relevant, including—but not limited to:

• Business & Financial EducationUnderstanding business credit, personal vs. business finance, funding readiness, pricing, and long-term sustainability for creators and founders.
• AI & Emerging TechnologyHow to use AI tools to save time, spark ideas, improve workflows, and stay ahead of the curve—without feeling overwhelmed or replaced.
• Branding & Graphic DesignVisual identity, brand consistency, design basics, and how to create professional-looking assets even without a design background.
• Content, Marketing & Digital StrategyHow attention works online, what platforms reward, and how to position yourself or your business for visibility and growth.
• Systems, Tools & OperationsThe behind-the-scenes setups that make brands run smoother—from tools and templates to organization and execution.
• Mindset, Confidence & LeadershipBuilding the clarity, confidence, and discipline required to show up consistently and lead with intention.
  

How Each Session Feels

• Led by experienced hosts, educators, and guest experts
• Conversational, practical, and easy to follow
• Built for real people—not buzzwords or fluff
• Designed to meet beginners and experienced professionals in the same room
  

You don’t need to know everything.

You just need to show up curious.

Who It’s For

Thursday Trainings are for:

• Creators looking to build something sustainable
• Founders who want to better understand branding and digital tools
