I’m available for talks and workshops with your team, or you can book me to sit on roundtables, webinars, or give fireside chats about all things social/community/trend–based.
I also offer bespoke one-on-one or group training in social media management, community management, and social listening. Get in touch if you want to find out more about this.
Webinar
In Summer 2025, Kim was joined by collaborators Astrofutures to talk about how mysticism is being reshaped for a modern era. Using social listening data collected over the previous year this presentation covers the new face of astrology, the new astrologer and their fans, how astrology and mystical practices fit into the current cultural landscape, and why this should matter to you.
Webinar
In November 2024 I revisited my Cozy research for social trends platform NextAtlas, bringing the data up to date. The video can be watched in full on LinkedIn.
Webinar
Exploring how book lovers, character cosplay, and viral trends are driving fashion, entertainment, and publishing all using TikTok listening. From the power of “BookTok made me buy it” to the rise of Netflix adaptations, discover how nerdy girls and bookworms are shaping the future of culture.
Webinar
Learn about all things #cleantok, from the bigger cultural trends indicative of self-care to the seasonal trending topics. Using YouScan I delve into the brands who are taking advantage of the moment, who the audience is, the smaller communities involved in the larger movement, and more.
Webinar
Earlier in 2024 I gave a webinar with Jess Jorgensen for the ICG about our research into functional/medicinal mushrooms. Jess conducted extensive qualitative research, and I conducted social listening over the course of six months to understand the rise of popularity in mushrooms.
Webinar
Alongside my favourite collaborators, the Nerd Pirates, I did a quick 45-minute talk on how we leveraged interactive storytelling to create a super-engaged fan community around the official Sherlock escape room, using only social media.
Webinar
I worked with Pulsar Platform to research the no/lo alcohol trend currently sweeping the world, then took part in their webinar on the topic.
Roundtable
I was part of SiLabs’ Demo Day, talking with some of my industry peers about what is missing from Social Listening Tech.
A write up of the talk is available on the SiLab website.
Masterclass
I was approached by How To Academy to deliver a Social Media Masterclass. The 90-minute class explained how social media actually works and shared tips and techniques for reaching and connecting with your best online audience.
The talk has been archived since their latest website redesign, but Archive.org has the itinerary for the event.
Expert Interview
I was contacted by research agency Bamm to be interviewed for their global fandom report.
Mitzi Phung · Creative Strategy LeadWhen working with Kim, she is quick to understand complex assignments and delivers beyond expectations. Her expertise helped shape our final strategies in a way we could not have done without her. I would work with her again on any of our big initiatives that require a seasoned social strategist.
