From random posts to a social media system your team can run
Most Indian businesses are active on social media, but few teams work from a shared plan. One person posts on Instagram when there is time. Sales shares product photos on WhatsApp. LinkedIn goes quiet for weeks, and enquiries wait unanswered. This programme fixes the system behind the posts. Your team learns to choose channels on purpose, plan content around business goals, write for each platform, handle conversations and read results honestly. Everyone leaves knowing their role and the next 30 days of work.
AI is part of the workflow, not the whole of it. Participants use tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Canva to research angles, draft captions, plan carousels, outline short videos and prepare reply templates. Then they learn the part most courses skip: checking facts, keeping the brand voice, avoiding copying, respecting privacy and getting approval before anything is published. The aim is faster first drafts with better judgement. Nothing is posted just because a tool produced it, and every draft has a reviewer.
The training is built for Indian working conditions. Examples can use Hindi and English content, regional festivals, B2B buying cycles, real estate launches, retail promotions or education admissions, depending on your sector. Every module ends with a usable output for daily work, such as an audience brief, a four-week calendar, a reply bank or a reporting sheet. Parikshit Khanna leads each session himself. He has trained 3,50,000+ professionals, including teams at Arvind Fashions, Malabar Group, Godrej Properties and vivo India.
How the programme runs
Every engagement follows the same five steps, so the session is shaped around your team before day one. Dates, scope and fees are confirmed in a written proposal after the first conversation.
Discovery conversation: We discuss your goals, platforms, team roles, sector and current challenges on WhatsApp or email.
Audit and design: Parikshit reviews your public pages and shapes the modules, examples and exercises around your brand.
Written proposal: You receive the scope, format, duration, dates and fees in writing before anything is booked.
Hands-on delivery: Participants work on real tasks onsite or live online, producing calendars, drafts and reply guides.
Follow-up plan: The team leaves with a 30-day action plan, templates and a prompt library to keep using.
Who this social media training is for
Marketing and brand teams. Plan campaigns across platforms with clear pillars, owners and approval steps. Brief designers and agencies better, review AI drafts with confidence and report results leadership understands.
Founders and business owners. Build a simple, repeatable routine for your company page, personal LinkedIn presence and WhatsApp Business. Learn what to post, what to delegate and which numbers deserve your attention.
Sales and customer support. Turn comments, direct messages and WhatsApp chats into well handled conversations, with reply templates, escalation rules and a clean handoff from social enquiry to sales follow-up.
HR and employer branding. Use LinkedIn and Instagram to share culture, hiring news and employee stories credibly, with clear consent, approval and tone rules for posts that feature employees or workplace events.
Social media executives. Move beyond posting on schedule. Learn audience research, hooks, carousel and short video structure, community management and reporting, with AI prompts that speed up first drafts.
Leaders and department heads. Learn how to judge a social media plan, which metrics matter and how to set safe rules for AI use, brand voice and approvals across your teams.

Eight modules that cover the full social media workflow
Eight practical modules cover the full workflow. Short programmes pick the modules that matter most for your goals; longer programmes cover all eight with more practice and feedback on real drafts.
Module 1: Audience, brand voice and channel choice
Start with who you want to reach and why. Participants build audience profiles from customer questions, sales feedback and comments, then define a brand voice with clear do and do not examples. They compare LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and WhatsApp Business against goals and capacity, so the team commits only to channels it can run.
Exercise: Write a one-page audience brief for one priority customer group. Output: Audience brief, voice guide and channel matrix
Module 2: Content pillars and a four-week calendar
Teams turn business goals into four to six content pillars, such as education, proof, culture, offers and community. Each pillar gets formats and an owner. Participants then build a four-week calendar that respects Indian festivals, launches and sales cycles, with approval checkpoints built in, so marketing, sales and leadership share one plan.
Exercise: Map next month's posts to pillars, owners and approval dates. Output: Four-week content calendar
Module 3: AI-assisted writing with human review
Participants use ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini to research angles, draft captions and plan carousels. They learn prompt patterns covering audience, goal, voice and format, plus a review checklist that catches wrong facts, generic wording, copied phrases and unsupported claims. The real skill is editing: using AI for speed while keeping accuracy.
Exercise: Draft three posts with AI, then edit them against the checklist. Output: Reviewed post pack and prompt library
Module 4: Visual content and short video planning
This module covers carousels, images and short vertical video. Teams plan hooks, on-screen text, subtitles and mobile-safe layouts in Canva. YouTube now treats square or vertical videos of up to three minutes as Shorts, so the module covers clear short formats. Participants plan their own content; filming, editing and video production services are not included.
Exercise: Storyboard one short vertical video and one carousel. Output: Creative briefs and one storyboard
Module 5: WhatsApp Business and community management
Social media creates conversations, and conversations need owners. Participants set up WhatsApp Business basics such as the business profile, product catalogue, and greeting and away messages, which Meta lists as core app features. They also write reply templates for comments, complaints and enquiries, with clear rules on tone, response time and escalation.
Exercise: Write ten reply templates and an escalation rule for complaints. Output: Reply bank and escalation matrix
Module 6: LinkedIn for companies and leaders
LinkedIn matters for B2B sales, hiring and leadership visibility in India. This module covers company page planning, employee advocacy with clear guidelines, and personal posts for founders and senior leaders. Participants practise turning expertise into useful posts and planning a steady rhythm that fits a busy week, without exaggerated claims or engagement tricks.
Exercise: Plan four LinkedIn posts for one leader from real work topics. Output: LinkedIn plan for the page and leaders
Module 7: Paid social planning and responsible testing
Teams learn to plan Meta and LinkedIn campaigns at a working level: objective, audience, creative variants, budget limits and a simple test design. The module explains ads that click to WhatsApp, which Meta offers to businesses, and lead forms. Participants write a brief an agency can execute. Ad spend always stays your decision.
Exercise: Write a paid social brief with two creative variants and a stop rule. Output: Campaign brief and testing matrix
Module 8: Analytics, reporting and a 30-day plan
Participants choose a short list of metrics linked to goals, such as reach, saves and qualified enquiries. They learn UTM naming, why platforms count differently and the limits of attribution. The programme ends with a capstone: each team presents its calendar, review process, reply guide and reporting sheet, then commits to a 30-day plan.
Exercise: Build a monthly reporting sheet from last month's real numbers. Output: Reporting sheet and 30-day plan

Social media training across India, onsite and online
India's social media audience is mobile-first, multilingual and fast-moving. A post that works in Mumbai may need a different tone in Lucknow or Guwahati, and B2B buyers in Bengaluru read LinkedIn differently from retail shoppers on Instagram. The training uses examples that fit your market: regional festivals, Hindi and English content, dealer networks and the WhatsApp-led buying journeys common across Indian businesses. Teams practise on their own pages, not foreign case studies.
Parikshit is based in Delhi NCR and delivers onsite sessions across the region, and in other Indian cities on request, usually as one or two day blocks. Live online sessions on Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet suit teams spread across branches, with the same exercises and outputs. Hybrid plans also work, such as an onsite kickoff followed by online reviews. Format, location and dates are confirmed in the written proposal.
Onsite cities: Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Lucknow, Guwahati, plus live online sessions anywhere in India.

Frequently asked questions
Which platforms does the social media marketing training cover?
The core programme covers LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and WhatsApp Business, with the focus chosen during the discovery conversation. A B2B manufacturer may focus on LinkedIn and WhatsApp, while a retail or real estate brand may focus on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube Shorts.
Is this training suitable for beginners?
Yes. Beginners start with audience, content purpose, brand voice and a simple calendar, and no design or coding skills are needed. Experienced teams use the same modules to fix their process: approvals, reply rules, testing and reporting. Mixed groups also work well.
How is AI used in the programme?
AI supports research, first drafts, carousel outlines, video scripts and reply templates, using tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Canva, as your company allows. Every AI exercise ends with a human review for facts, originality, privacy and brand voice.
Will you create our social media content or videos?
No. Digital Training Jet trains your team to plan and create content themselves. It does not take content production, video making or account management projects. During the training, participants draft real posts, briefs and storyboards, so they leave with usable work and the skills to continue.
Can the training be delivered onsite in our city?
Yes. Onsite sessions run across Delhi NCR and, on request, in cities such as Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata, usually as one or two day blocks. Live online delivery suits teams spread across branches. Location, format and dates are confirmed in the written proposal.
Do we need a paid ad budget or paid tools?
No. Paid social is taught at a planning level using practice briefs, so no live ad spend is needed. Free versions of AI and design tools cover most exercises. Any ad spend or subscription remains your own decision and is separate from the training.
Can you customise the programme for our industry?
Yes. Examples and exercises are built around your sector, products and customers. Common versions include B2B and manufacturing, real estate, retail and fashion, education, healthcare and professional services. Share sample posts and goals beforehand. Confidential material can be replaced with practice data.
Do you guarantee followers, leads or viral posts?
No. Nobody can honestly guarantee followers, reach, leads or sales, because results depend on your offer, audience, creative quality, consistency and budget. What the programme provides is a clear system, practical skills and reusable templates that help your team work more consistently and measure what actually changes.
How long is the programme and what does it cost?
Formats range from a 3-hour foundation workshop to a multi-session programme over several weeks, plus private coaching for leaders. The fee depends on format, group size, location and customisation. Scope, dates and fees are confirmed in a written proposal after a short discussion on WhatsApp or email.
What should we prepare before the session?
Share your goals, the platforms you use, participant roles and a few recent posts. Collect common customer questions and any brand guidelines, and make sure participants can log in to the AI and design tools your company allows. Confidential material can be replaced with practice data.
