Overview

Packed with advice, tips, best practice, business case studies, strategic insights and lots more, this book will help you and your organisation get real results from Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and many other platforms. We even included a few behind the scenes stories from over the years (some of which we promised never to tell!). For the last 10 years, businesses all over the UK have been enjoying transformative results after attending the 'Embrace The Space' social media masterclass delivered by Gary Ennis and Colin Kelly. Now, for the first time, all the learning and entertainment that makes the day so popular is available in this book. Gary and Colin have a natural rapport and an extensive knowledge of social media as it applies to small and medium business use. ‘Embrace The Space’ isn’t just about understanding Facebook or Twitter, it’s about an attitude; understanding what makes you special, understanding your customers and having fun. Written during summer 2020 this is a fresh, inspirational look at what it takes to succeed with social media in a post lockdown world.
