How to succeed at Instagram

Did you know there are 1 billion monthly active users on Instagram? It's never been more important to nail your brand strategy and build a highly targeted and engaged audience on one of the world's biggest social media platforms. New Zealand's first professional Instagrammer Liz Carlson of @YoungAdventuress will run you through everything you need to know about building a successful Instagram page to help you achieve your business goals. 

The evening will consist of the Instagram workshop + Q&A + networking drinks and snacks at NODE.

An award-winning photographer and writer, she is based by the sea in Lyttelton. Named one of the most powerful women in travel by Condé Nast, for the past ten years, she has traveled to over 70 countries with her blog and Instagram, and her projects and work are routinely featured on media outlets like BBC Travel, The New York Times, Buzzfeed, and Forbes. Liz is a frequent public speaker, even taking the stage at TEDx and SXSW. She has run her own weekly travel column on Stuff.co.nz since 2016 and Outside Magazine since 2018. She co-founded The Travel Bootcamp in 2015 teaching people how to build a career in travel (with 7 successful events to date).
