What a spectacular way to start the day!

On Wednesday, East Gippsland Marketing Inc had the pleasure of hosting the brilliantly colourful and talented Nic Everett from The NIC FIX at the Kalimna Hotel.

Against a breathtaking sunrise backdrop with sweeping views over the lakes and ocean, Nic delivered an unforgettable session: 'Teach Me The Ways Of Instagram.' It was the perfect blend of high-energy digital upskilling and showcasing the very best of our stunning regional location.

Nic delivered an absolute masterclass on modern content creation techniques, showing our local business network exactly how to step out from behind the brand and show up online with genuine confidence. In today’s market, authentic digital presence is everything.

Missed out on this one? Don't worry. We are already planning our next sessions for Bairnsdale and Orbost. Stay tuned for dates and registration details.
