Social Media Training
TCF will provide five hours of social media consulting. In this time, we’ll teach you how to do everything that we do as professional social media marketers (the process is simple, it’s the consistent implementation that’s the hard part).
During the training, we’ll share our screen and walk you through everything you need to know in order to effectively manage your social media marketing on your own. The meetings will be recorded, so you’ll be able to go back later and re-watch the trainings if you get a little rusty on the details.
Generally, we recommend that these trainings take place over 3-5 days, but we’re flexible in terms of when the trainings occur. Here’s what to expect:
- A detailed social media white paper tailored for your business that you can refer back to or use to train anyone else at your business. This acts as a step-by-step guide for your daily, weekly and monthly social media marketing duties, and can be followed to consistently implement the tactics we go over during training.
- Recommendations for which channels your business should have a presence on. Is LinkedIn right for your business? Tumblr?
- A complete rundown of what your business is doing right and what you’re doing wrong on your social channels.
- By the end of the training, each social media channel will be properly set up and optimized — you’ll be set up for success.
- How to schedule posts.
- Details on which types of posts generate the most interaction from fans and how to structure them.
- How to set up a Facebook ad campaign – We’ll show you how to target the right people, what photos to use, how much to bid, where to send people and how to come up with the right copy.
- How to tag photos and posts to increase interaction.
- Facebook advertising, including targeting, messaging, images and A/B testing.
- How to structure a tweet and which types of tweets are the most likely to get interaction.
- How to use the HootSuite platform in order to schedule tweets.
- How to use HootSuite in order to monitor for people and businesses tweeting about your business and topics related to your industry.

We can also train how to effectively use LinkedIn, Quora, Instagram, Pinterest and any other social media site that would be a good fit for your brand — and we’ll work with you to determine which channels are a good fit, if you’re not sure. Each additional channel is +$500.
In most cases, all topics and channels can be covered within the five hours, with plenty of time for questions. Social media training also includes 30 days of consulting after training wraps (up to one hour per week), including advice on tweaking your strategy to generate more engagement.
Digital PR Training

The trainings take about five hours and will be recorded, so you can go back and listen to them again if you need a refresher. After training, we’ll work with you on a consulting basis for 30 days (up to one hour per week) to tweak pitches, give feedback on strategy and implementation, edit press releases, etc.
Content Writing & SEO Training
If you have the in-house resources to create content, but need some training on how to optimize it, TCF can help. Over the course of several hour-long trainings, you’ll get:
- Access to TCF’s internal guides on keyword research, editorial calendar development and content writing (these are the same guides that our professional copywriters follow).
- Information on how to write different types of blog posts (each good for different goals), and how to bake content marketing into your blog posts.
