About Social Media and how to do it 


1. Clever Copywriting – making words work for you 

Every communication that comes from your organisation is a marketing opportunity, so what you say and how you say it is business critical. Regardless of what you’re writing - from a glossy corporate brochure to the humble customer feedback form - all sales and marketing copy has to be carefully crafted to make people respond. And you want them to be responding to you and NOT to your competitors!

Basically you cannot afford to write badly – so no pressure there then…

2. Twitter Basics

Perfect for those who have put up their profile and then got no further or for those who need to make an informed decision as to whether or not they should be using Twitter for their business marketing.  

The half day is in two parts the practical and the tactical.

Since 2016 I  have also run Advanced Twitter

3. Explaining Pinterest

Essentially an electronic scrapbook or online corkboard, Pinterest lets you quickly and easily bookmark, organise, and share images relating to useful ideas, aah moments, and inspirations found on the web. And these images are tagged to go back to the originators website.

The reason that this is such a powerful marketing tool is because it’s a social media bridge between emotion and commerce. And it is SO MUCH easier to sell if you can pull at the heart strings…
Why not come along and find out how to use Pinterest in order to get advertise for nothing to people who are interested in your product or service

7. Content Marketing: which is about compiling materials that assist, educate or entertain your target market. 

This type of marketing fits hand in glove with attracting potential customers to your business via social media. There's no point posting a load of links that aren't yours - this means you are doing a great job of promoting other people ...and not yourself.

 Find out how to do it well and how to promote it.

8. Snapshot Branding 

When describing branding, the Chartered Institute of Marketing says “brands matter to every company because what they capture is distinctive. This is the primary source of your competitive advantage and the ability to create value.”

But, this is not about logos and design. This is about what you do; how you uniquely do it; and how to differentiate yourself clearly and consistently when getting your message across to clients and potential clients.

So do you have absolute clarity with regard to your marketing direction, focus, personality and voice? Or have you sort of made it up along the way?

Snapshot Branding for Charities  and Snapshot Branding for Creative Artists have also been delivered and well received!
