Sharing practical skills and inspiring stories

A new Noosa Small Business series of workshops and panel events aimed at sharing practical skills and inspiring stories and supported by Noosa Council for micro- and small-businesses is launching next week in Noosa.

The first session will be ‘DIY Vertical video: making the most out of videos for your business’ and will cover TikTok, workflows to save time, trolling and how to have a creator’s mindset.

Speaking with host Velvet Garvey will be Jordana Grace, aka That British Girl, a content strategist and creator who has become a globally recognisable thanks to viral videos like her series, ‘Things they should tell you before coming to Australia’.

“Last year I had a strategy with session with Jordana,” Velvet said. “After following her advice, I started a TikTok account and a video of mine went viral in less than a month, with over 5.5 million views, so I’m really excited to have her speak at our first event and share her knowledge with other business owners.”

According to Noosa Council, the Noosa economy is dominated by small businesses (98.2% of all businesses in Noosa have 19 employees or fewer). This equates to there being over 7000 small businesses in Noosa.

Many of these small businesses are micro- and solo-businesses in which owners are doing it all – accounts, marketing, sales, customer service and often work from home.

The Noosa Small Business Series aims to connect these people with other business owners and service providers, while giving them practical skills and information that can help them up-skill fast.

The series focus will be on marketing and digital tools such as AI, PR, video content and social media.

The first session will be on Thursday 13 July from 6.30-8.30pm at Warehouse HQ, 4 Action Street Noosaville. Price $25.
