We also have a combined course that will help you master both of New Zealand’s most powerful social media:
By far the most powerful social media channels for NZ marketers these days are Facebook and Instagram.
That’s where the audiences are, and that’s where YOU need to be.
- Through Facebook you can reach an estimated 3.1 million Kiwis 13+
- Through Instagram you can reach an estimated 1.95 million Kiwis 13+
Of course, there’s rather more to Facebook and Instagram marketing than making a few posts or taking a few pretty pictures and hoping to reach large numbers of your target audience.
Effective social media marketing requires the right knowledge, tools, tips and techniques to help you get noticed and to encourage your audience to engage with you and your brand.
That’s where we can help.
In recognition of the combined strengths of Facebook and Instagram, we’ve taken the best of our popular Facebook and Instagram courses, and blended them together into a powerful thirteen-part Complete Facebook and Instagram Marketing online training course.
This combined course will bring you up to speed with what’s required to make your social media marketing on Facebook and Instagram really work for you in 2023.
