Ever thought about YouTube for your business but felt overwhelmed, time‑poor or unsure where to start? Unlike social media posts that disappear in hours, YouTube content works for you for years, attracting customers, building trust and increasing visibility long after you hit upload.

In this practical, hands‑on workshop, hosted by Christine Burrows, you’ll cut through the noise and leave with a clear, realistic YouTube plan you can actually execute. What you’ll gain:

· A simple 5‑video content strategy tailored to your business

· Clarity on what to say, who it’s for, and why it works

· Confidence to create YouTube videos using just your smartphone

· A plan you can put into action immediately — no overwhelm, no jargon

This isn’t about going viral or becoming an influencer. It’s about using YouTube strategically to promote your business and attract the right customers. By the end of the session, you’ll be ready to start promoting your business on YouTube within a week.

Perfect for start‑ups, solopreneurs, and small business owners who want results without the headache.

PLEASE NOTE: The Build A Business programme offers a series of funded workshops with limited availability. Due to the costs and preparation involved in delivering each session, attendance is expected. Participants who fail to attend on two separate occasions without prior cancellation will be unable to book onto future workshops.

This policy applies to all sessions, including Know Your Customer, IP – Protect Your Assets, Business Basics, Marketing: The Essentials and Funding Your Business Idea.
