Workshops

& Talks

I host engaging and fun workshops, both in person and online, on a variety of subjects in the realm of publishing, content strategy, social media and creative projects. I’ve given talks and hosted workshops at literary events, cafes, retreats, libraries, summer camps, publishing offices, co-working spaces and industry conferences!

It can be hard to find the motivation or confidence to get started creating online or learn about an area of social media you are unfamiliar with and these talks and workshops are the perfect way to get started! I love creating something custom that’s perfect for your audience, so whether you’re a small business, larger corporation or putting on an event, don’t hesitate to get in touch!

All workshops and talks can be catered for public and industry events, launch events, away days or upskilling in-house teams.

I can also provide these workshops as 1-on-1 coaching, for single or multiple sessions.

  • Sanne created and delivered a series of bespoke productivity and time management workshops for our remote-first studio. Our team benefited hugely from the sessions, which were insightful, practical and beautifully presented [...] a true pleasure to collaborate with Sanne every step of the way - we would eagerly do so again!

    Sara Veal, Workplace Experience Manager at Uplift Games

  • [Sanne’s] supportive and constructive coaching gave me confidence to adjust my performance style and her technical steer on all aspects of production, including editing, was invaluable. I couldn't have wished for a friendlier or more effective guide.

    James Spackman, Publisher Agent and Consultant

  • Sanne is a joy to work with. She’s a great communicator – she engaged all the workshop’s participants, responding to a diverse group with different levels of experience in the field.
