- Smart Phone Photography & Video for Business
Get your social media right in terms of look, tone and audience engagement. We can upskill your staff, get you closer to your customers and develop usable skills in a fun way that can also improve staff morale.
91% of the population have a photo enabled smartphone and 90% admit to not knowing how to use it properly. Decision makers in business often don’t know their Snapchat from their Twitter. Companies are under skilled and under resourced in terms of creating and maintaining a realistic social media presence. This can often be a bought in resource and therefore not self-sustaining or organic in its content. We can develop your creative output and deliver skills that will boost your content creation.
These are designed as beginners courses, for those businesses or individuals who have little to no experience of creating content and/or using social media platforms to host their marketing material. The courses will give participants an introduction to;
Social Media Content Creation
- Learning to tell a story about your product via photos/videos
- Using stories and highlights to increase engagement
- Accessing and understanding the insights functionality of your social media platform/s

There will be an emphasis on the Instagram Platform - but content can be shared to multiple social media platforms.
The public face of your company is its social media presence – how do you think it looks, remote and distant or local and interactive?
