I’m very excited to announce that Crafty & Connected – a social media bootcamp for indie biz – is running again early next year!

We’ll be kicking the course off on January 30th – so everyone has plenty of time to get over the holidays and be back into the swing of things.

I’ve given both the website and the course a little freshening up – thought the content will be primarily the same as last time, there will be some changes reflecting the last 6 months in the social media sphere.

For those of you who haven’t heard about the course before, here’s some quick tidbits of info – if you’d like to know more, just pop on over to the course website:

• Crafty & Connected is a 6 week, interactive, online e-course
• There is a new lesson published on the course blog each weekday during the 6 weeks
• You retain access to the information for 6 months from your sign-up date so you have plenty of time to re-visit the info if life gets in the way
• There is a class forum to allow participation between members
• There are 3 Q&A chat sessions where I answer your questions
• We start by covering the ‘why’ of social media, followed by lessons on media such as twitter, facebook, blogging, pinterest, flickr, google +, stumbleupon and much more
• This course is specifically written for those of you who want to start or are already running a small indie craft business

Sound good?

I’ll be officially opening registration mid-next week. However, I’ll be sending out a special pre-registration e-mail to everyone on my mailing list, offering the course for 48 hours only at HALF the regular price. I love my newsletter subscribers to bits, and this is my way of saying thank you for being here!

So, if you want to have the chance to grab the discounted price, and you’re not already a subscriber, just click here to jump on the list!

Here are a few snippets of feedback from some of the lovely people who took the course last time around…

Thanks so much for offering this course to the “social media challenged” people. I am currently working on my Facebook page trying to get that going. Need to tackle Twitter next! Thanks for making it no longer “scary”!!!

The advice and support the Crafty and connect course provided really inspired me, boosted my confidence and opened my eyes to whole new world of business networking. It has had a really postive impact.

Thanks for running the course, hope you have lots of people joining you for future ones.
