Marketing Without Social Media

Antisocial: The Algorithm Pity Party

Live dates TBA, recording available

The current state of social media is a mess. If you’re sick of spending hours creating content and getting zero results, I have good news: You do not need to be on social media to have a successful marketing strategy. In this 3-hour training, discover effective ways of attracting new customers and staying front and center of your existing fans. Best of all, these tried-and-true marketing techniques don’t involve creating content at the whim of an algorithm or doing free labor for billionaires.

Social Media Dropouts

un-salesy marketing, one experiment at a time

Social Media Dropouts is a monthly membership for artists, solo business owners, and community builders who want to share our work and connect with the people who care about it. If you want to learn how to do marketing that doesn’t feel gross (and spend less time shouting into the void on social media), this is your club.

We gather twice a month to share support, swap feedback, and celebrate small, doable experiments in marketing. Stop feeding the algorithm, make cool stuff & invite people into your world.

💖 What They’re Saying

Your workshop was high value and over delivered. I especially enjoyed the personal antidotes and practical tips that demystified the process and provided tools to sidestep obstacles.

Angie A.

Amber shows up authentically, which helps create a space in which every participant can also show up as themselves–messiness and all. She challenges traditional business and marketing advice to acknowledge what might work more organically for each individual.

Lindsay

You rock. You have so much knowledge in the field, and I appreciate you sharing this information.

This workshop was extremely informative and helpful!

Chelsea

I’ve been a successful employee for decades, and it’s a big jump now to be my own boss. There is a lot I am trying that is not in my comfort zone, so by the end of the webinar, I found a smile on my face feeling I wasn’t alone in trying new things out even when I’m scared.

Leila

Amber’s clear vision and creative thinking brings projects roaring into life. Community building is a special skill that, with Amber, comes from her heart and a passion for the ways we can see and be seen in the world with compassion.

Scarlett

Thank you so much for your time, expertise and in particular, your energy. You are an absolute delight to listen to and learn from. So heart-felt thanks to you.

Students walked away from Amber’s sessions feeling confident

On top of being wildly knowledgable on a variety of subjects, Amber’s presentation style is deeply grounded, honest, fun and funny. Amber is both straight forward in the most refreshing way and brings thoughtful nuance into the conversation. Amber is sincere.

Students in our Advanced Trainings immediately felt at home with Amber because she is open, welcoming, and comfortable with herself and her subject matter. She demonstrates authority as a presenter and has a way of organizing complex information into digestible parts.

Amber is a highly perceptive person, adept at reading the room, able to listen to students questions, and weave relevant context in her answers. She invites inquiry and gives participants time and space to work though the content.

Students walked away from Amber’s sessions feeling confident with new information, a lot of new questions to explore, and most importantly, feeling inspired.
