Why Take this Workshop:
First impressions are so important. That’s what your content is. A lot of times, your social media is the first main point of contact with your potential customers and clients.

Nichole will also teach you how to get in front of the people that matter most for your business!

We’ll cover: The different types of content, specific tips for creating high-quality content, and how to focus your content around engagement. We will also cover how to utilize LinkedIn to its full potential – starting from the basics. Lastly, we will show you a specific method to growing your business and gaining clients through LinkedIn and Alignable. Instructor, Nichole Howson, uses this method for her business and more than doubled her business in just three months of implementing this strategy.
