This class will get you started or boost your confidence using an Instagram account and integrated Facebook page for your business or organization. You'll learn how to present yourself well on social media and make effective posts. We will start the workshop by building your profiles and pages from the ground up, or give them a facelift if they already exist. Then we'll develop a strategy for ongoing use and draft your first few posts. Learn how to avoid embarrassing mistakes and make posts that your audience will actually engage with!
