$Let\u2019s GET social$

Ready to get your brand out there? Even if you’re still building your business, now’s the time to start sharing your story. Our Let’s Get Social workshop will show you how to use social media to connect with your audience from the very beginning.
Social media is more than just posting updates; it’s about letting people in on your journey. Whether you’re just starting or scaling up, you can build your brand's personality, share your vision, and create authentic relationships along the way. Social media is free and one of the best ways to build a community, even before you have something to sell.
In this workshop, you’ll learn how using multiple platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, and Google My Business works together to create a powerful “spider web” effect—each platform weaving connections that bring attention and traffic to your brand, story, or business. We’ll help you understand why social media is a game-changer for early-stage businesses and *how* to make the most of these platforms to grow your online presence.
Discover the right platforms for your goals and learn how to use them effectively to build a presence that grows with your business.
Running alongside Kerry Hodge’s mobile photography workshop, these two sessions complement each other, giving you the ultimate toolkit for creating stunning visuals and mastering social media posting.
