SHOUT IT!

Whether you're a writer, a performer or event programmer, figuring out how to make a splash in the ocean of online content can be overwhelming.

In this workshop, you’ll be taken through the basics of self-promotion: from finding your audience to creating engaging content and campaigns – and loads more in between.

This workshop will run you through creating a publicity campaign at low or no cost. It works best if you have a campaign in mind – so if you’re planning on launching something, holding an event, self-publishing a book or similar, bring your idea with you!

***This workshop is specifically for women and people of marginalised genders.***

Tickets: £5 via Eventbrite here
