The 7 deadly sins of social media
Whenever I talk to people about the ways organisations use social media, it’s amazing how often the same challenges crop up. In this post I’ve outlined seven common ‘sins’ businesses seem to keep committing.
The super simple way of using TikTok to better understand online influencers
I’ve recently spent some time orientating myself with TikTok, an app you’ll definitely have heard of, but perhaps not used professionally.
How the platform will build up its advertising offer isn’t clear, but right now it can provide some fantastic insight into the state of influencer marketing
Why we’re stuck in a ‘content marketing by numbers’ rut (and how to get out)
We’ve been told a thousand times that compelling, engaging content is essential when using digital marketing to build a brand.
But we’re stuck in a rut, or at least reached a plateau in this discipline. Eye-catching design and making use of the latest social network feature is no longer enough for content marketers to stand out.
Our services:
We provide our clients with a wide range of services such as running global audits, developing playbooks, advising on social media management tools and delivering training.
