The Moonshine Communications Academy courses are designed with values based communications in mind.
Many content creators struggle to successfully find audiences for their projects. As specialists in connecting with audiences around the globe, the team behind Moonshine Agency are now sharing their skills and know-how through courses to help you create successful projects.
What if you knew you could find your ideal audience before you started creating your project?
Define Your Ideal Audience is an easy to follow system for anyone with a project that needs to reach people. You’ll learn a values-based approach to researching what your audience think and feel, as well as how to position your message. This gives you the ability to create a project your audience is likely to want to hear about. Giving you the confidence that your project has a great chance of success before you begin.
Yes, I need this!Are you worried that you'll spend a lot of time and money creating a project only to have it fall on deaf ears? That you won't find an audience and you won't get results?
Even if this is your first time creating a video project when you define your audience before you start you’ll significantly increase your chances of successfully finding your target audience.
When you define your ideal audience first, you’ll understand how to position your message, ready for your people to hear it.
It's natural that when you conceive a project you think everybody would want to see it. That you wouldn’t want to limit its potential reach by tailoring it for a specific audience. Most creators have thought this at some point.
But when you go after a broad general audience, you spread your message, your resources and your time, very thin. And this is going to limit your chance of success far more than defining a target audience from the beginning would.
Perhaps you’ve never thought of defining your ideal audience in a very targeted way before?
Then this course is for you. You’ll learn techniques to help you identify what your audience think and feel, and once you know how to do that, you’ll have this skill for all your future projects too.
And if you sign up with this offer you'll receive special bonuses. More about the bonuses when you scroll down.
Yes, I'm ready!By the end of the course you will have learned:

Define Your Ideal Audience can transform the way you think about connecting with your audience and how you message your projects.
Many creators take a generic approach to their audience and don't have a strategy for finding them. They plan to hand their project over to a distributor to do that work. Or they think their marketing department will somehow ‘find’ an audience online, perhaps with good SEO, by casting high profile talent or with magic. Magic works right? But the results are often lacklustre. And that makes it harder for them to get a green light for their next idea.
Many still go with the old school approach of using an ‘avatar’ to define their audience. This cookie-cutter approach no longer works with a communications project, particularly video. You’ll never find an audience with an undefined message that doesn’t take on board worldviews and values.
Because many filmmakers and videographers don’t self distribute they leave defining their audience off the to-do list. They make a project they are interested in and assume that everyone else will be too. Then they have to try and sell it to a distributor and hope that they can find an audience for them. The magic approach again!
Or, if they can get it in a festival and win some awards, it will get attention and then it will become a success, right? But they never really know who they are making their project for, to begin with. So how will they know who to market it to?
The 'build it and they will come' approach is all backwards. Knowing who you're talking to before you begin is the way to create a successful project.
You just need to know how to define your audience, and with this system, that part can become easy.
