Marketing training for owners who'd rather do it themselves
Tim and Tanya teach social media, SEO, Google Analytics, copywriting, AI and more. Learn in a small group, one-to-one, online or from an ebook, and the ebook guides start free.

What marketing training courses do you offer?
We run marketing training in eight areas, from social media and SEO to copywriting, AI and team leadership. Courses are priced one at a time, so ask for a price in your enquiry. If you're building a website with us, training on that site is already included. This page covers everything else.
What business owners have told us
Some reviews below name So Social Media, Tanya’s social-media practice. It is now part of Your Marketing Specialist, and the same people do the same work under this name.

I participated in the introduction to AI workshop with Tim and I learned so much! It was a great relaxed atmosphere but very informative. Tim has a broad knowledge about using AI for all kinds of things and I found he had the answers to all of the burning questions I had. 10/10 recommend if you're looking to take your first steps into the AI world.
A half-day AI workshop for small business owners
Tim runs a half-day AI workshop for small business owners. You don't need to know anything about AI before you come. We leave out the jargon and spend the time on where AI fits your business.
Half a day won't make you an expert, though. You'll leave with a plan for where AI helps, and the skills to start on it.

What you'll learn
The tools, and how to fit them in
We also cover the AI tools available to you, and how to fit them into the way you already work. Price on enquiry.

Social media training, from a plan to a weekly routine
Social media is Tanya's side of the business. The training gives you a system: what to post, how to write it, and how to tell whether it worked. We teach the same methods we use with our own clients. We keep it practical and skip the jargon, so you don't need to be good with tech.
Training won't post for you, though. You'll still need to set aside time each week, but you'll know what to do with it.
What you'll learn:
Can we teach a room?
Our sourdough classes have had more than 500 people through in three years, and every class books out. That's bread, not marketing, but it's the same two people at the front.
Face-to-face workshop (groups of 8 or fewer)
Hands-on, with feedback on your own business as you go. Price on enquiry.
One-to-one training
Built around your business goals. We work through your own challenges and build a social media strategy for your industry and audience. Price on enquiry.
Online webinar (up to 50 people)
