I'm Andrea Thompson. Having been a copywriter for over 20 years, I've worked in advertising agencies and design agencies nationwide before turning freelance.

I've been managing  my own direct clients for the past 17 years, working with amazing brands like TalkTalk Business, Berghaus and LNER. 

I'd love to share my knowledge with small businesses, new startups and those of you who just want to hone your copywriting skills. I can help you write great customer emails, persuasive product descriptions and engaging social media. 

I also love cooking, popping to the gym and heading out to the cinema or for lovely meals with anyone who'll go. 

This fun workshop is for women who are running a business and need some direction on how to get where they want to be. 

It's perfect for you if you're running a small business, are part of a franchise, a freelancer or have just started out and feel a bit lost. 

If you love what you do and have given up the 9 to 5 for a better work/life balance, want to turn a hobby into a full on paying business, or have been in business for years, we can help. 

The day is split into two halves. 

In the first half, Anna will show you how to plan 90 days of business direction, helping you to set your goals to achieve and move your business forward.

She'll ask you what your struggles are, where you'd like your business to be and show you how to break that down into easily achievable chunks. It relieves the overwhelm and brings clarity to your route ahead.

The second half is with me, Andrea. I'll focus on creating a content plan using the four content pillars which give your posts purpose and direction. We look at how to turn those ideas into posts, exploring stills, carousels and reels, while considering the benefits of all three. 

We'll walk through hashtags, emojis, bitly links and different social platforms.

We'll also go through copywriting techniques, using ChatGPT and AI to help and how to change a still into a carousel or a reel. 

Plus, there'll be a lovely lunch and breaks in between, with a few cuppas and lots of laughs.

Yes. The office is on the ground floor and is easily accessible. 

Yes! There'll be a lovely lunch of sandwiches, fruit and drinks. There might even be a couple of biscuits to dunk in your cuppa.

Yes! It's very handy and even better, it's free. Just turn up and find a spot.

It starts at 9.00am.

We'll do quick introductions and start Anna's 90 day business planning. 

12.30pm we'll break for lunch.

1.30pm we'll kick off again with social media until 3.30pm.

Then we'll finish up around 4pm. 

It's fun, it's relaxed and pretty free flowing, so those times aren't strict. We're easy going with no stress. 

Fancy joining us? We'd love to see you there.
