Social media is a bit like The Void. No matter how much we scream into it, it feels like nothing changes. Alas, if your goal as an author is to find stable, scalable success, you have to be on social media.

It’s 2026, though, and the world’s on fire.

How are you supposed to build a brand—without completely burning out your mental health? How do you amplify your voice—without detracting from important conversations? How do you find your people—without accidentally feeding the trollz?

With over a decade of experience in building organic strategies that scale, author and marketing whizbang Fitz Cyr is here to help. In this 3-hour masterclass, Fitz will guide you through each of today’s leading social media platforms, their unique best practices, and quantifiable insights to help you determine which ones are best suited for your unique brand.

But social media isn’t exclusively about likes, follows, and subscribes. There’s a scientific link between social media and mental health, and Fitz is a firm believer in finding success—without sacrificing sanity. You’ll leave this masterclass with a slew of tips to help you maximize your impact on social media—without tanking your nervous system.
