Free

Behind every successful campaign lie mistakes that not everyone dares to discuss publicly. During the evening, Justė Akelaitytė, Head of E-Commerce Development at “Fantazijos.lt,” will explain how standout viral campaigns are created, share the lessons she’s learned and her most painful marketing mistakes, and offer advice on what to do when an ad campaign doesn’t go as planned.

During the event, we will also elect a new “LiMA Klaipėda” board. This will be a great opportunity to hear from the candidates, vote for your favorites, and help strengthen the chapter.

Everyone is invited—not just LiMA members!

Marketing doesn't work. TikTok is pointless. Is that really true?

15 September 2026 16:30
Free

The Culture Factory invites cultural representatives, creatives, and young entrepreneurs to participate in a hands-on entrepreneurship workshop “Marketing Doesn’t Work. TikTok Is Pointless. Is That Really True?” on September 15 at 4:30 p.m. at Kultūros fabrikas
(Conference Hall A, first floor).

Registration (confirmed immediately upon registration) https://forms.gle/34tqGqt19U8wC7sQ9

The seminar will cover how consumers make decisions, what determines the effectiveness of advertising, and how the attention economy works.

We will also explore why we shouldn’t be quick to blame TikTok’s algorithm and how to take advantage of the platform’s capabilities to create effective content.

“We don’t need marketing.” Indrė Razbadauskaitė-Venskė has been working in marketing for more than 10 years. She is a lecturer at LCC, ISM, and the Vilnius University Business School; a marketing strategist and business consultant; chair of the Klaipėda chapter of LiMA; founder of “Don’t Let Go of Your Dream,” coordinator of the Kultūros fabrikas mentoring program, mentor for small (solo) businesses, TEDx speaker, and creator of the podcast “Branded Minds.”

For 45 minutes, we’ll discuss:
“Advertising doesn’t work.” Or maybe we simply don’t understand how people make decisions?
The attention economy: why most communication never even gets a chance to be evaluated.
“I don’t fall for advertising.”
What do cognitive biases tell us about this?
Why rational arguments don’t always win out.
What can we learn about effective communication from consumer behavior and neuromarketing?

“TikTok is stupid.” Is that really true? Emanuelis Kamarauskas has many years of experience developing startups and brands. Today, he heads the social media agency “Panama Agency,” which has created numerous success stories in Lithuania and internationally and became the first agency in the Baltic states to receive an official “TikTok Success Case” recognition with the international brand RT TAX, which operates in 11 countries. “Panama Agency” also helped “Cannumo,” named “Startup of the Year,” rise to prominence, having worked with the company for a year from day one.

During this 45-minute session, we’ll discuss:
Why is it so easy to blame the algorithm?
Why is “TikTok isn’t right for us” one of the most costly phrases in marketing?
How organic content quickly reveals the truth.
How to create content that works.

Location: Kultūros fabrikas, Conference Room A (first floor), September 15 at 4:30 p.m. Photography will be permitted during the event.

Practical Public Speaking Course: Final Presentations and Summary

02 December 2026 18:00

DO YOU KNOW THAT FEELING?

You have something to say, but the words get stuck in your throat. Or, on the day of the presentation, your heart starts beating so fast that you forget what you wanted to say.

Silence during meetings. Nervousness before a presentation. The feeling that others speak more confidently and fluently, while you just watch from the sidelines.

This happens not because you have nothing to say, but because you lack practice and a safe space to gain it.

I invite you to a practical public speaking course in Klaipėda (at the Culture Factory), starting September 30.

COURSE INFORMATION

• Start Date: September 30•
Time: Wednesdays, 6:00 p.m. – 7:45 p.m. (8 sessions, once a week)
• Location: Kultūros fabrikas,
Klaipėda• Group size: An intimate group of up to 16 participants—so that everyone actually speaks, rather than just listening.

LECTURER: JULIJA BRODSKĖ

I have been a member and president of the “Toastmasters Klaipėda” public speaking club for many years. I have conducted hundreds of one-on-one consultations and group training sessions. I’ve helped clients prepare for important conferences and startup pitches, manage their nerves, and regain their self-confidence.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

• Speak at meetings without fear and clearly express your opinion;
• Quickly organize your thoughts, even without preparation;
• Control your body language and voice so that you look and sound convincing;
• Feel comfortable in front of any audience—from a work presentation to a celebratory speech.

REAL CHANGES, NOT JUST ANOTHER ROUND OF “TRAINING”

My goal is not to overload you with dry theory or a pile of slides that you’ll forget the moment you walk out the door. I want to create a space where you can truly break through: overcome your inner barriers, feel the power of your voice, and discover your own authentic speaking style.

Here, we won’t be analyzing textbook-style speaking—we’ll be speaking practically from the very first minute. Each week, you’ll take a solid step forward until your nervousness transforms from paralyzing fear into a driving force that helps you capture your audience’s attention and earn their trust.

WHY A GROUP?

Because courage isn’t born from theory, but from practice with others. When you see that others are just as nervous as you are. When you receive support, not judgment. When you try out a new technique in a safe environment—before applying it in real life.

PROGRAM:

• Week 1 (09/30): Building connections and overcoming fear.
• Week 2 (10/07): Clarity and speech structure.
• Week 3 (10/21): Speaking off the cuff with confidence in any situation.
• Week 4 (11/04): Body language and nonverbal communication.
• Week 5 (Nov. 11): Voice control, intonation, and pauses.
• Week 6 (Nov. 18): Persuasiveness and storytelling—taking communication to the next level.
• Week 7 (Nov. 25): Visual communication, slides, wardrobe, and props on stage.
• Week 8 (Dec. 2): Final presentations and summary.

WHO IS THIS TRAINING FOR?

• Executives and team leaders who want to communicate their vision persuasively and calmly.
• Specialists and experts who need to present ideas at meetings but lack the confidence to do so.
• Freelancers who want to confidently present their services.
• People who experience intense nervousness before public speaking and want to turn it into a driving force.
• Those who want to learn how to quickly organize their thoughts and speak without prior preparation.
• Anyone who values a genuine connection with their audience and wants to improve in a safe environment.

PRICE AND REGISTRATION

• Early-bird price: 249 EUR (valid through September 10)
• Regular price: 299 EUR

Payment secures your spot in the course. In the event of non-attendance, the fee paid is non-refundable, except in cases where the course is canceled due to insufficient enrollment.

Klaipėda• Group size: An intimate group of up to 16 participants—so that everyone actually speaks, rather than just listening.

LECTURER: JULIJA BRODSKĖ

I have been a member and president of the “Toastmasters Klaipėda” public speaking club for many years. I have conducted hundreds of one-on-one consultations and group training sessions. I have helped clients prepare for important conferences and startup pitches, manage their nerves, and regain their self-confidence.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

• Speak at meetings without fear and clearly express your opinion;
• Quickly organize your thoughts, even without preparation;
• Control your body language and voice so that you look and sound convincing;
• Feel comfortable in front of any audience—from a work presentation to a celebratory speech.

REAL CHANGES, NOT JUST ANOTHER ROUND OF “TRAINING”

My goal isn’t to overwhelm you with dry theory or a pile of slides that you’ll forget the moment you walk out the door. I want to create a space where you can truly break through: overcome your inner barriers, feel the power of your voice, and discover your own authentic speaking style.

Here, we won’t be analyzing textbook-style speech—we’ll be speaking practically from the very first minute. Each week, you’ll take a solid step forward until your nervousness transforms from paralyzing fear into the driving force that helps you capture your audience’s attention and earn their trust.

WHY A GROUP?

Because courage isn’t born from theory, but from practice with others. When you see that others are just as nervous as you are. When you receive support, not judgment. When you try out a new technique in a safe environment—before applying it in real life.
