Educational talks

Consistency is key for website and social media content, but is there an easy way to tackle it?

Implementing a consistent digital marketing strategy while running a business can be mission impossible, but Lee will explain how each topic can be divided into bite-sized sections and tackled in-house. In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea or coffee, one of the following tasks can be completed: analysing your competitor’s website, generating keywords to drive website traffic, structuring SEO content, or using AI to create draught content. With fresh content in place, Lee will also discuss how it can be maximised with email newsletters and social media.
