Good social media strategy looks different for a bakery, a political podcast, and a vintage electronics restorer — but the underlying principles are the same.

Andrew Parsons turned @nostalgic_nooks_bk into a full-time business by doing one thing well: making people genuinely care about vintage televisions converted into cat beds. In this class, he’ll walk you through the strategy behind building a loyal audience in any niche — content development, platform mechanics, and the part everyone wants to get to: monetization. We’ll cover brand partnerships, what sponsors are actually looking for, and how to position yourself for deals that work for your audience and your business.

Come with your account handle and a rough sense of what you want your account to be.

*This class is capped at 20

Who's this class for?

Anyone trying to grow a social media presence with intention, whether you’re just starting out or posting for years and wondering why some things land and others don’t.

Testimonials

The material covered was really helpful, and I loved hearing the audio examples that illustrated many of the points. It was a wonderful balance of practical advice and inspiration as well.

I have pages of notes. I think my idea for a history project is more layered than I thought it would be.

Andrew is passionate and knowledgeable about his work
