Wanting to get on Socials but not sure which social media platforms are right for your business? This interactive workshop is built for new entrepreneurs who want to cut through the noise and make smart, strategic choices. We’ll explore the strengths of each major platform (like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, and more), how to match them with your target audience, and what kind of content works best where. Through guided exercises and real-world examples, you’ll leave with a clear social media strategy that fits your brand—and doesn’t burn you out.

I’ll show you how to create content pillars—aka your secret weapon for stress-free, on-brand social media. You’ll walk away with a clear plan, tons of ideas, and a repeatable system that makes showing up online way easier (and way more fun). No fluff, no jargon—just good vibes and solid strategy.

Let’s put everything into practice!

Today’s session is all about applying your new social media knowledge. Bring your laptop and any questions you have—Destiny will be on hand to guide you step-by-step as you build and improve your social media platforms.

This is your time to make real progress: whether you want to refine your profiles, work on upcoming posts, or get feedback on your content ideas, Destiny is here to help and support you throughout the session.

The sessions will be held by Destiny Kirk, who is the founder of Yellow Hat and from a young age she's nurtured her dream of creating something impactful, as well as a passion for helping small businesses reach their full potential. She is an alumni of University of South Wales graduating with a Advertising Design which have given Destiny the foundation to use skills in a way which is truly helpful.
