Learn how to set up digital art and designs for CMYK printing.

Setting up documents to include bleed from the get-go, create rich blacks, colour sample RGB colours and find closest CMYK matches or identify unprintable colours.

There isn’t anything more disappointing as a designer, than sending off a design you’re proud of to a print company and receiving back a product that is dull, has a white edge you weren't expecting or shows a mish mash of black shades that looked the same on-screen.

I can teach you how to set up your work so it’s right from the start.

Spot signs of when the printing has gone wrong, such as out-of-register printing and colour variations throughout the print run on the product you have received.

The zero-click search era is no longer a future prediction—it is our current reality. With over 60% of web searches ending without a single click, traditional SEO strategies, keyword rankings, and legacy traffic funnels are rapidly becoming obsolete. In this AI-mediated world, discovery happens inside the "dark funnel" of large language models, where platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews act as the primary interface for your audience.

Your new digital currency is no longer the website click; it is the AI citation.

This masterclass is designed for executives, digital transformation leaders, and marketing strategists who want to pivot from obsolete traffic metrics to AI visibility. Participants will learn how generative engines parse, prioritize, and select the brands they trust. We will break down real data from millions of AI responses to uncover the exact profile of content these models prefer—focusing on open, structured knowledge hubs, informative comparative assets, and definitive educational content.

Move beyond fighting for vanishing organic traffic. Learn how to optimize your digital infrastructure for AI extraction, position your brand as an authoritative industry source, and build lasting consumer trust in a world where the machine is the interface.
