Twitter masterclass from Apprentice social media guru, 9 Qs to help discover Brand YOU etc



Twitter Masterclass from BBC Apprentice social media guru
To stand out on Twitter - Be Human, Be Different, Be Funny - so says David Levin, the man responsible for the social media campaigns for BBC’s The Apprentice, for BBC’s The Voice and many more.  Also see if you can catch a ‘topical wave’ like Tourism Ireland did for the Kimye honeymoon.  This article also cites Mr. Tayto as doing social media well – its Facebook page has 275,000 fans.

9 questions to help you discover Brand YOU!
Many of us SMEs plan each week to dedicate some time to planning, to working on the business instead of in it etc etc – but if you’re like me, the week slips by, you get caught up in operational stuff - and it remains on the To Do list.   So, this article on LinkedIn which suggests we do a “Quick Take on Brand You” – appealed – initially, of course, because of the reference to “quick”!  But, of course, if these things are to be done properly, they require some time and thought – so I’ve already started working on Brand Me today – honest!    

Coup for Failte Ireland
Thumbs up to Failte Ireland who got international sportswear brand, Columbia to bring international key adventure and outdoor journalists to sample the Wild Atlantic Way very recently.  The journalists took part in adventure sports in Donegal – some even taking part in Gaelforce North - and the photography and video footage that Columbia took will be used to promote its 2015 clothing range globally.  While I, along with Fiona Bolger Communications, am doing some work with Failte Ireland on their EDEN project, unfortunately I wasn’t involved in this!
