From Our Clients
Alanah has definitely been a shining star on showing me the way with Instagram.
She took me from no knowledge to having a beautiful grid and 300 followers in just over a month. To say I am amazed at the growth and impact I am able to have on Instagram, is a complete understatement. Let alone I am having fun in the process. I am making great connects that are enabling me to spread brand awareness and visibility.
Alanah in my eyes is a must if you want to raise the profile of your business on Social Media.
This challenge will move you from being an Instagram ‘Beginner’ to an ‘Intermediate’!
Even though I have been on Instagram with my business for 6 months, I learnt so much from Alanah that I didn’t know, and as a result my engagement and followers have already increased.
Even for someone who has used Facebook for a while, you will learn something new!
“Alanah gave me some social media training for a specific client – it was a great session, I came out feeling really energised and well-equipped for what I need to do over the coming months. Her style is relaxed and straight-forward and I felt like I got a lot out of a short session. Recommended.”
