88: Social Media Marketing Made Easy: Community Conversations with Dana Diament

Most of us have a complicated relationship with social media, but it can be a powerful business tool if we learn how to harness it effectively.

Today host Rachel talks social media marketing with returning guest Dana Diament, a yoga teacher and graphic designer with years of experience in branding. Dana creates clarity around social media communication by prompting us all to ask ourselves exactly who are we talking to, and what key themes we aim to convey. Whether your challenge is to identify your student niche or shift to a new one, or find an easier way to determine what to post and when, Dana has simple, practical advice for you.

Listen in to learn how to build an effective online community, whether you are a new yoga teacher or a veteran still searching for your groove.
