In 2023, both Straiton Community Stores and Kirkmichael Community Shop & Café secured funding to enhance their digital marketing presence. Adworks worked closely with both co-operatives to support this initiative by setting up email marketing software, delivering social media training to enable more efficient and effective posting, and providing design training to help create more eye-catching and engaging social media content. In addition, we assisted with domain registration and the setup of business-specific email addresses, helping to strengthen their overall digital presence.
