Top tips

"My top tip for any online business is never stop learning! Always be ready to pivot, technology moves so quick that you need to know your key markets and how to keep engaging them. After 7 years running on online store I found doing the Digital Ready modules was perfect to re-focus with some great frame work for any digital business."

"Your content should be perfectly crafted around your businesses target audience and thinking about how you can add value. The next thing to think about is creating that content in the right context, meaning the particular social media platform. Instagram is image based in an artful way. Facebook is also highly visual but less arty. To engage on Facebook you should be packaging your message in pictures and video. If it's a link you should still lead with an image and have the link in caption."
