Digital Readiness Program – Your Digital Health Check 

This Overall Readiness Workshop program and digital health check/audit will be conducted so that we can determine which sessions in the module you need to attend.

Since the bushfire disasters began in our region in 2019, several socially driven opportunities to increase economic support have arisen such as #bringyouremptyesky, #buyfromthebush and #spendwiththem, which provide opportunities for local business owners to promote their products and services both Australia-wide and globally.

Some challenges that have arisen for many businesses, are the lack of an existing online presence with capacity to sell products and technical skills to employ such technology. Training and technical support can bridge these gaps and allow economic recovery for local businesses. This training will be provided by a combination of workshops and one-on-one support for business owners.

We have identified four key technical areas where training is required to engage with the aforementioned opportunities and each of these has it’s own session. Book in for each module if you want to participate in the complete module.

• Instagram Readiness
• Website Readiness
• eCommerce Readiness
• Facebook Readiness

This modules begins with an initial Digital Health Check session conducted to ascertain the business owner’s ability to fully engage with the training process.

At the end of this module businesses will be better equipped to participate in the aforementioned sales opportunities via online platforms, sell their products and stimulate local economic activity.

This module has been designed to suit business owners will have different levels of existing digital adoption. Workshops can be split and customised to meet the participants at their current level of need.

Andy Willis
I run a successful business but I don’t have a permanent office. I’ve spent the majority of the past 5 Australian winters cycling and hiking in the French Alps, working on my business from there and immersing myself in the small French village community.

The rest of the year I spend in the small but beautiful coastal village of Tathra on the Far South Coast of NSW, Australia. Here I fit my work life around the surf, cycling or simply walking on the beach rather than the other way around.

Participants are welcome to attend for the morning workshop session only or take the opportunity to stay and collaborate with fellow business owners for the full day.

Andy Willis will be in attendance for the full day at the designated venue.

Andy Willis
I run a successful business but I don’t have a permanent office. I’ve spent the majority of the past 5 Australian winters cycling and hiking in the French Alps, working on my business from there and immersing myself in the small French village community.

The rest of the year I spend in the small but beautiful coastal village of Tathra on the Far South Coast of NSW, Australia. Here I fit my work life around the surf, cycling or simply walking on the beach rather than the other way around.

 Participants are welcome to attend for the morning workshop session only or take the opportunity to stay and collaborate with fellow business owners for the full day.

Andy Willis will be in attendance for the full day at the designated venue.

There will also be a limited number of individual one on one sessions with Andy available on each of the days by appointment.  

You will get the most benefit from attending the full program, both from a learning and collaboration point of view.

Digital Readiness – Instagram Readiness 3 – Posting and Scheduling

This Instagram Readiness Workshop will focus on posting and scheduling to your business Instagram. You will create a month of content and schedule it using free tools. Private 1-1 sessions available for participants as required. 

Since the bushfire disasters began in our region in 2019, several socially driven opportunities to increase economic support have arisen such as #bringyouremptyesky, #buyfromthebush and #spendwiththem, which provide opportunities for local business owners to promote their products and services both Australia-wide and globally.

Some challenges that have arisen for many businesses, are the lack of an existing online presence with capacity to sell products and technical skills to employ such technology. Training and technical support can bridge these gaps and allow economic recovery for local businesses. This training will be provided by a combination of workshops and one-on-one support for business owners.

We have identified four key technical areas where training is required to engage with the aforementioned opportunities and each of these has it’s own session. Book in for each module if you want to participate in the complete module.
