“The real icing on the cake is the community that has been built.”
“I took Social Media Manager School (Premium) in 2013 and ever since I graduated, my social media consulting and management business has skyrocketed beyond my imagination. The amount of knowledge and value in the School is 10 times (and more) the price they charge for. Although I can’t ever deny the quality and quantity of value they deliver in this course, the real icing on the cake is the community that has been built on the back on the course.” — Liz Azyan
Liz Azyan
“Never felt more comfortable jumping off a cliff!”
“I came to the program with lots of social media savvy and little business knowledge on how to run a social media business – for profit! Their program was well structured, contained a lot more content than I was expecting and had lots of step-by-step guides on what to do. Best of all they are active members of their community and offer up lots of advice, suggestions and support. The private Facebook SMMS Community is also positive, engaging and supportive. Never felt more comfortable jumping off a cliff!” — Janet Kennedy
Janet Kennedy
“This one by far was the best one I’ve taken!”
“I’ve taken a couple of social media manager courses and this one by far was the best one I’ve taken! It’s also the one that I’ve learned the most and got the details on what it’s like to be a social media manager. Thank you to you for such a great course!” — Kristen Robinson
