A relaxed, hands-on morning for business owners who know they should be making video - but haven't quite pressed record yet.
Tuesday 21 April
10.30am
The Waterside Centre, Newbury
£50 per person
IS THIS FOR ME?
You keep putting off making Reels because you're not sure you're doing it right
You feel awkward on camera and wish you didn't
You have an idea of what video "should" look like - and it puts you off
You want a simple, repeatable process you can actually stick to
You're a small business owner who wants to use Instagram more confidently
"This will be a very relaxed session with no more than 10 people in the room.
Small & supportive."

WHAT YOU'LL LEAVE WITH
This workshop is designed to be practical. By the time you leave, you'll have real things in your hands — a filming setup, a post idea and a plan. Plus time at the end for Q&A and personalised help from both of us.
📸
That you can replicate at home or in your workspace.
🎯
Complete with a hook and caption, worked out in the room with our help.
📋
So you never have to stare at a blank screen wondering what to post.
📅
A clear idea of what to post and when, so the momentum keeps going.
✨
The kind that comes from actually doing the thing in a safe, supported space.
🤝
Bring your specific questions — we'll save time after to help you individually.

About Rebecca
Rebecca is an Instagram coach and strategist. She works with introverted business owners who want to use Instagram in a way that actually aligns with their energy - so they're not forcing themselves into strategies that don't suit their personality.
She works with clients through one-to-one coaching, group programmes and workshops, helping them get clear on what to post, how to write content that connects and how to show up on video in a way that feels manageable rather than daunting.

About Nick
Nick’s spent more than 20 years working in tv as a Producer and Director, primarily for the BBC and Channel 4.
He’s worked on everything from ‘Countryfile’ to ‘Kirstie’s Handmade Christmas’, working with veteran Presenters like Matt Baker and fresh, new faces with no experience. So there’s nothing he enjoys more than helping people reach their full potential.
More recently Nick’s begun the move into the social media sphere alongside more traditional tv work, bringing broadcast-quality production skills to fire up your socials - and turning awkward into awesome.
