Voice Workshops

Do you think social media is just for kids?

Maybe you don’t understand how social media can help your organisation?

You may already be convinced, but how do you start?

Your competition is using social media but you do not know how to do it?

Maybe you want to know how to use it for a specific purpose, like customer service or sales?

Maybe you are using social media actively but you feel stuck and you would like to take your competence to the next level?

If the answer to any of those questions is YES, then Voice workshops can help you unlock the potential of social media.

Why does your organisation need social media?

Digital and social media is changing the way we do business and conduct our campaigns:

• It can drive leads and create new opportunities,
• It can increase your sales & revenue / donations,
• It can create a better awareness of your brand,
• It can help you communicate with your customers / stakeholders more effectively,
• It can help you stay ahead of your competition, be seen as innovative and communicate your messages to much larger audiences.

Our team of specialists in social media, PR, marketing, sales and brand management run a set of workshops, passing their knowledge of social media onto you, enabling you to run your campaigns and manage your online identity effectively.

About our workshops

Whether you are interested in our Oxford workshops or our in-house  workshops the approach is similar. We take the subject away from a lot of the technical jargon you may see and talk about it in plain English, we may even teach you some of the jargon along the way!

We work according to you, we listen and adapt the way we deliver the training to suit your needs, we take an approach which uses:

• Practical application of tools, how do we use them, which ones will work for you?
• Practical exercises, start writing a strategy, hands on use of tools, background basics – like page design, layout and format, how do we do it?
• Looking at case studies of successful (and unsuccessful) campaigns: what can we take away from them? what can we learn from their methods?
• Adopting basic theory around various areas of marketing – PR, WOM, traditional, consumer behaviour – how do we work these into our social media campaigns, how do we talk to people online?
• Looking at digital, how does it change the way we run our campaigns? How can we jump on this rapidly expanding area successfully?

With both our in house and Oxford workshops it doesn’t stop there! We will continue to be there, so you can continue to learn and develop your skills in social media. Check out our  Voice Aftercare section below  for more details on how we support you after your workshop(s).
