Student review:
The ‘Hit the Ground Running’ course was a huge eye opener for me. It showed me different important aspects to the industry that I hadn’t even been aware of. Kimberly’s small and intimate class size allowed us to really dive into the details of our own careers and figure out how best to propel them forward. – Christopher

In this two-day social media intensive, participants will learn how to promote their brand and take an active role in building their social media footprint (and, as a result, bookings or business) through the top social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, blogging and more). Taught by former publicist/blogger and best-selling/award-winning author Lisa Jey Davis, this workshop will take away the mystery of social media, and enable participants to build a solid, socially visible brand.
In this workshop, participants will hear solid testimonials:
BUSINESS

- Learn how a Marrakech food tour business carved a niche and saw 100% of their sales and conversions come solely from Social Media and blogging, and how they went from $0 to 100,000 in revenue in the first year, with absolutely no advertising.
