WWW.UPANDCOMINGWEEKLY.COM December 13-19 UCW 11 EVENT With social media platforms like Facebook and Tik- Tok monetizing their top users, singles, families, and professionals are all tapping into the extra payday. Content is one of the easiest ways to get paid online but it is also a taxing job that requires creators to come up with new, fresh ideas and aesthetically pleasing videos and photos for their followers. Many business owners are creating spaces for content creators to take pictures and create content for themselves, but few are dedicated to only content creation. Keep It Cute K, owned by local entrepreneur and women's business owner advocate, Sylvia Glanton, is hosting Keep It Cute Content Day on Saturday, Dec. 16th from 1 to 5 p.m. at the studio at 100 Hay Street, 7th floor. is event will be a one-stop shop for con- tent creators, business owners, and professionals. Tickets are $125, and can be purchased on Event- brite at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/keept-it-cute- content-day-presented-by-sylvia-s-glanton-tick- ets-731277549837. Tickets include 4 hours of studio time, a professional photographer/videographer, and a content creation strategy session. e content creation strategy session will include tapping into the latest trends and how about "crafting compelling content that resonates with your audience." A professional makeup artist will be on hand for those who need it for an additional cost. For those who have a "glam" team and photographer that will be joining them, only those creating the content for their social media or website should purchase a ticket. Keep It Cute K creation space has several distinct spaces for content creation. e rooms are designed with all businesses in mind. Much of the space has views of downtown, creating the perfect lighting for photos and videos. is event is for anyone who needs to create con- tent, but studio owner Glanton said the event's focus is on business owners and women in the area. "I have a content creator that is going to come in and help business owners or women who are into growing their digital footprint online. A lot of what needs to happen when establishing yourself on social media is having a presence that screams 'I AM HERE' and also screams that you are a professional, because I think a lot of people miss that step," Glanton said. "It's ok because sometimes people are able to be themselves without all the aesthetics but this specific audience that I'm looking to come to the content day are people who pretty much are business owners, who have some sort of following or want to establish some sort of following, but they also need profes- sional pictures." Glanton has a passion for helping individuals and small business owners, prompting her to create this invaluable event for the local community. "I see little things that people don't take into ac- count when it comes to even having a social media presence. One thing that I always do, is if I do have a photoshoot and I have these new beautiful pictures that I want everybody to see, I update my profile picture or my cover photo and I always add a caption. People don't do that. So I noticed that. is is also the time for people to come in and get those little tips and stuff on how to increase their presence," she said. Keep It Cute K creation space functions as a venue for small gatherings, meetings, and parties. e intimate, well-decorated space, allows for the creative juices to flow or the perfect backdrop for an office gathering. Glanton is only getting started with this event. She will also be hosting a Friendsmas event at the studio later this month and her Future Rich Aunties confer- ence is in April of 2024. Future Rich Aunties is the product of Glanton's vi- sion to see women business owners being successful while creating a community of support for one an- other.
