Digital Direction Workshops

Since the start of the project, Digital Direction has run a range of free introductory workshops to help small businesses and sole traders in selecting and implementing new technologies. The workshops have been informal, practical sessions, each delivered by one of our panel of expert facilitators.

Topics have included Using Social Media to Promote Your Business, Making the Most of Your Website, ECommerce, Finding New Business on the Web, Using LinkedIn to Increase Business, Using GoogleApps, Moving Business to the Cloud, Using Facebook and Twitter, Flexible Working and Customer Relationship Management Systems.

Over 150 different small businesses have taken advantage of this offer, often attending several different workshops, and many have put into practice skills and ideas they have picked up from these.

Phase 2 of the project is now concluding and, as a result, the workshop offer has also come to an end. Other, alternative training opportunities may become available later in the year should there be a Phase 3. Keep an eye on the Digital Direction website for more information.
