This 3-week Lab helps lodging professionals create simple, effective marketing content that showcases their property and connects with potential guests—without needing advanced design or video skills.

Through live Zoom sessions, instructor demonstrations, and hands-on homework, participants will learn how to design eye-catching social media graphics in Canva, create engaging short-form videos for multiple platforms, and optimize their Google Business Profile to improve online visibility. By the end of the workshop, participants will have practical, ready-to-use marketing assets they can immediately put to work for their business.
