FAQs

Q: Will I need to bring a computer?
A: No. This isn't a workshop that has you sitting in front of a computer. This workshop is about learning, thinking, creating and planning in a hands on way. We find that it's the time you spend away from a screen that allows you to stop and reflect, organise your thoughts and be creative. If you'd like to bring your computer or iPad you're more than welcome to, but is isn't required. (Please not there is no internet access available at the venue).

Q: What will I get out of it if I'm already using social media?
A: Most of the businesses we work with already have some approach to social media or content marketing. But what they lack is a strategic approach and plan to their efforts, which often results in feeling like they're not quite sure what they should be posting, and feeling disorganised in their execution. We'll help you with both of these things, so you walk away with an actionable plan.

Q: What could I bring?
A: Any marketing documents or plans you already have relating to your business (don't worry if you don't have any), any examples of social or content campaigns you like, any insights around your current social and content activities, a list of questions you'd like answered.

Q: What kinds of things will we be doing?
A: The workshop will be very hands on, and will have you working through a series of mindmaps, checklists, worksheets and calendar templates. And of course, you'll also have the opportunity to ask specific questions throughout. The numbers for the workshop are limited to a small group (less than 15) to ensure everyone has a chance to get the most of the workshop. The aim of the workshop is to have your social media strategy documented and content calendar planned for the next 6 months, so that you feel more organised and purposeful in your social media efforts.
