How we differ from other training providers
Online tools are very useful and there are a lot of courses out there designed to show you what to do when you are using them.
Rather than tell you WHY you should be using certain tools, we’re helping with the HOW, covering technical aspects like:
- What are hashtags and how do you research and use them on different platforms
- What are CRMs and how do you set one up
- What’s the best software for scheduling social media
- How do you design social media posts in Canva
- How do you design and send a newsletter campaign to different customers etc
- Can your blog automatically post to social media or your newsletter
- How to set up Whatsapp for Business
- How to set up booking software and connect it to your website
- How to get information from GA4 Google Analytics
- …..the list goes on!
