Video Call Training Sessions

Description

Video Call Training Sessions are a perfect way to an aspect of making keepsake and memorial jewellery. Taught via Zoom, Skype or Facebook Chat at a time that suits you, you’ll be training one-to-one with me, Nikki Kamminga with a call made just for you.

Our video call training sessions are included in our business startup kits such as the Platinum Keepsake Business Startup Package which comes with the basic bronze kit, silver level tools and an eCommerce website with built-in SEO for your keepsake jewellery business.

Step one, watch my entire playlist on YouTube here and read all of Nikki’s blogs to learn the basics. Then purchase one of our video call training sessions packages and we will work with you to tailor a bespoke call to suit your needs. Focus on breastmilk and baby keepsakes, memorial pieces with cremation ashes and hair, advanced setting techniques,  SEO and website design or even a silicone mould making masterclass! We can do a little of everything and aim to make the sessions memorable and fun.

No need to leave your house, you’re welcome to share your screen on Zoom and can leave your camera off if you feel more comfortable. If you have breastfeeding children we will add a little extra time to make up for latching. We are on London/Cardiff time GMT+0/BST so please check what time it will be here; Nikki is happy to do calls quite late at night.

Nikki’s Teaching Background

I have a six years’ experience teaching keepsake and memorial jewellery to apprentices and staff, studio training one-on-one and making tutorials. My background is in tech support having worked on the Tesco Electrical Helpline and as a second level data support technician for Orange. In 2012 I was a self-funded volunteer working with vulnerable children including teaching. Since having my second child, I’ve made YouTube tutorials helping new artists learn how to make keepsakes. I am a self-taught SEO expert as you can see when Keepsaker Supplies and Tree of Opals come up in searches for breastmilk and memorial jewellery. Website queries on WordPress and WooCommerce, if your query is more technical you can speak to Haks who is a senior developer.

On The Video Call Training Sessions

The call will last a little longer than stated to give us time to say a quick hello and get settled. Please make sure you email us what you want to cover before the call so Nikki can do research if needed.

We recommend that you purchase at least a Basic Supplies Bundle or we highly recommend you choose one of our our business startup kits such as the Platinum Keepsake Business Startup Package which comes with the basic bronze kit, silver level tools and an eCommerce website with built-in SEO for your keepsake jewellery business. You will be able to take most of the supplies home on the first day and any out of stock items will be shipped to you free of charge.

Accessibility:

Nikki is a touch typist so if you’d prefer to do the call on live chat we’re more than happy to do so. If you need a translator or use any accessiblity software please let us know before booking so we can do our best to accommodate. Please let us know your pronouns and preferred name before the call (Nikki’s pronouns are they/she)
