What’s happening?
If you are a complete beginner, we recommend attending “Going Social” before any (or all) of the other workshops. We go beyond simple marketing tips to building relationships and finding your own tribe, whilst gaining a reputation for expertise in your niche. The software, apps and tools we recommend are all free or freemium (occasionally just very cheap).
Delegate quotes: Love it, excellent content very, very relevant. Really enjoyed it, informative, informal and fun. Brilliant at explaining this topic. Full of useful tips.
