Creating a consistent brand and using Cava

A picture is worth a thousand words and the same is true in the business world. How your business presents itself online, in print and in person is a huge part of your communication, so you need to ensure that you have a consistent brand, tone of voice and visual identity.

In this workshop we will fine tune your own brand identity and use Canva to create content for all of your communication requirements.

Social Media – creating content, scheduling and engagement

Social media can be a great tool for business, but it is important not to waste your valuable resources because you’re not sure which apps to use, what type of content to create and how to engage with your customers.

In this workshop we will take a look at the different social media apps available and their benefits, and together we will create a bespoke social media plan which will include the types of content you should develop, how to manage the admin of social media and way in which you can engage with your customers and grow your audience.
