What I Learnt At Facebook

Last week I was at Facebook, London for a training day on how to use Facebook & Instagram for marketing your business.

It was a busy day with over 200 businesses & professionals attending the event. The takeaway from the event was video. Pretty much every tip they gave was about creating video content and distributing it on Facebook & Instagram.
