Why Bespoke?

Your business is unique. Your training should be too.

Our group masterclasses teach you brilliant skills. But they're designed for a room full of different businesses. Bespoke training is designed for yours. We use your products, your premises, your brand. The content your team creates and the strategies you build are completely tailored to your business, your audience and your goals.

We don't just teach you how to film and edit. We help you develop a social media strategy that actually fits the way your business works. You'll learn how to plan content with purpose, understand what your audience wants to see, and build a posting rhythm you can realistically stick to. And we teach you to see your business differently. To reframe the everyday moments, the behind-the-scenes work, the things you take for granted, into stories that stop the scroll. You'll come away with a clear plan and a completely new eye for what makes great content.

Whether you want to master quick, well-produced b-roll clips, build full story-led content with narrative, hooks and structure, or develop a complete social media strategy from scratch, everything we teach has storytelling at its heart. Because the businesses that win on social media aren't the ones with the biggest budgets. They're the ones with the clearest story and a plan to tell it.

Choose Your Programme

Two ways to bring training in-house

Whether you need an intensive training day or a longer-term programme with ongoing support, we'll build it around you.

In-House Training Day

A full day of hands-on training at your premises

We spend a full day with your team, teaching content creation, social media strategy, or both. Everything is built around your brand. Your team films real content using your products, your space, your story. And we don't disappear afterwards.

What's Included

  • Full-day session at your premises with your whole team
  • Content creation training: filming, editing, hooks, storytelling, b-roll techniques
  • Social media strategy session tailored to your business goals
  • Real content created on the day using your brand and products
  • We help you find the stories your business is already sitting on
  • Follow-up WhatsApp support so you're never left on your own after we leave

The Lonely Mouth Result

After a single in-house training day, Bristol restaurant Lonely Mouth hit 160,000 views and 8,000 likes on their very first post. We helped them see their business through a completely different lens.

From £847 (solo) / From £997 (teams up to 5)
Under £200 per person for teams. A fraction of one month's agency fees.

8-Week Bootcamp

Like having a personal trainer for your marketing

This isn't a one-off session. It's a two-month transformation programme. We work with your team over 8 weeks, building skills, creating content together, developing your strategy, and holding you accountable every step of the way. By week 8, your social media will be unrecognisable.

What's Included

  • 8 weekly sessions at your premises (approximately 5 hours each)
  • Content creation training: filming, editing, storytelling, b-roll, hooks and structure
  • Full social media strategy built over the programme, not just taught in theory
  • Practical homework tasks between sessions to build momentum
  • Dedicated WhatsApp group for ongoing support, feedback and accountability
  • Learn to reframe your everyday business into compelling content angles

The Comptoir Result

"Across the four in-person sessions, I've developed a much stronger understanding of how to create more engaging and dynamic video content. The training was especially useful in helping me think more strategically about storytelling and creating a clear narrative around the brand." - Clara, Comptoir

What One Session Can Do

Lonely Mouth. One training session.
160,000 views.

Lonely Mouth, a Bristol restaurant, came to us creating the same content as every other hospitality business. In a single in-house session, we helped them see their business through a completely different lens. We found the stories they were already sitting on, developed a content angle they'd never considered, and taught them how to shoot and edit it themselves on their phone. That first video hit 160,000 views and 8,000 likes across Instagram and TikTok. They didn't need an agency. They just needed to learn how to look at their own business differently.

From Businesses We've Trained

Real feedback from real clients

"The training was especially useful in helping me think more strategically about storytelling and creating a clear narrative around the brand. I've already seen an improvement in how our content performs and feels. The practical elements, such as filming techniques, food presentation, and content structuring, were really impactful."

"There was also the option to check in via WhatsApp if needed, which was helpful for any follow-up questions or quick support between sessions."

Ongoing support

We don't disappear after the session. You get follow-up support via WhatsApp for questions, feedback and guidance as you start creating on your own.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know

What's the difference between In-House Training and the Bootcamp?
In-House Training is a single intensive day. You get a concentrated hit of skills and leave with real content. The 8-Week Bootcamp is a longer programme where we work with you over two months, building skills progressively, creating content together each week, and providing accountability and support throughout. The Bootcamp is ideal if you want a deeper, sustained transformation.
How many people can be in a session?
In-House Training works for solo business owners right through to teams of up to 15 staff. The Bootcamp typically works best with 1-5 people from the same team so we can give focused, personalised attention.
Do we need any equipment?
Just smartphones. We teach you to create professional content using the phone in your pocket. No expensive cameras, lighting rigs or editing software needed.
What does the WhatsApp support include?
After your training, you're added to a WhatsApp group where you can ask questions, share content for feedback, and get guidance as you start creating on your own. It's there to make sure you never feel stuck or unsupported after we leave.
Can you cover both content creation and strategy in one day?
Yes. For In-House Training days, we can tailor the session to cover content creation, strategy, or a combination of both depending on what your team needs most.
Where do you deliver training?
We're based in Bristol and deliver most training to businesses in Bristol and the surrounding areas. But we're happy to travel further afield for the right project. Get in touch and we'll work it out.

Looking for something shorter? Our One-Day Masterclasses are open-group sessions in central Bristol. Learn content creation or social media strategy in a single day, from just £247 per person.
