### Blending tech & creativity for more focused, rewarding relationships

# SOCIAL MEDIA TRAINING

You can use social media creatively to show what makes your business different from the rest. But to use it effectively, you need a special blend of **communication**, **marketing** and **technical** skills. All our coaching and training workshops incorporate these 3 elements, to ensure your social media efforts are rewarded. 

Because everyone learns differently, we provide social media training in two different formats, so you can choose whichever suits you best. Or of course, you can combine the two.

## One-to-one coaching 

With one-to-one coaching, we work at your pace, and focus solely on your business objectives and your social media needs. You might have no experience at all, so you'd like to start slowly. Or you may have some experience, but would like to improve or expand your current approach. We promise to design a short programme of 2 hour sessions that are tailored exactly to your needs. 

## Social Media Workshops

With our workshops, you'll learn in a small group, in a friendly, supportive environment. We offer half-day and full-day workshops, depending on the topic. Our workshops are rated according to their level of difficulty: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. 

## Need a speaker for a PODCAST?

We welcome opportunities to share insights about CRM selection and implementation, change management and marketing. Please [contact Vanessa](mailto:vanessa@vanessahunt.co.uk)if you'd like to discuss the marketing or technology topics of most interest to your target audience.

## Need a speaker for an upcoming event?

We welcome opportunities to inspire others with our passion for marketing, networking and CRM. If you're [looking for a guest speaker](https://vanessahunt.co.uk/contact?hsLang=en), please contact us to discuss what marketing or technology topics are of most interest to your target audience.
