About Jonathan, freelance social media trainer

Hello – I’m Jonathan Pollinger, a freelance social media trainer and I’m here to help you love social media as much as I do.

Social media works best when it’s authentic. Social media management is all well and good, but no one can tell the story of your business as well as you can.

My mission as a freelance social media trainer is to equip you to grow your business using social media. I do this by providing tailored social media training, using the latest tips, tools and techniques to make your social media work hard – whether that’s raising awareness of your business or charity, helping you to attract more customers, or boosting sales and profits.

My background

I’ve been providing straightforward, practical training for small businesses and charities since 2009… before social media was known as social media!

It’s my speciality and my passion – and I’ve over 100 testimonials on LinkedIn to prove it.

Over the past ten years, I’ve worked with small businesses, PR and marketing agencies, charities, members of parliament, local government, business owners and freelancers.

“Jonathan combines precise technical expertise with a tolerant and humane approach towards those of us who have been a little slow on the uptake with new media.”
Martin Horwood, Former MP for Cheltenham.

“I’ve been blown away by the number of business enquiries I’ve received from Twitter since my training with Jonathan. Brilliant!”
Sarah Townsend, Sarah Townsend Editorial Limited

“The training was fantastic – very much targeted towards our team and what we do, so we didn’t waste time with things that we already knew.”
Jo Evans, Degreeplus Manager, University of Gloucestershire
