Wonder how to improve your offline networking efforts with social media?

Posted on Friday, June 12, 2009 by Fred

Thousands of business owners attend networking events in Ireland. The average is once every 30 days. At that pace, is it possible to remember people’s names, companies and what they do? Also, how long does it take them to know me? What are my chances of being seen as the expert in my field in a short period of time?
We raised these and more constraints relevant to offline business networking and tried to overcome every single one of those objections by explaining the core networking benefits of Twitter and LinkedIn. We also provided actionable advise to put into practice immediately :)

We attended the SFA event at the new Eircom building yesterday where Piaras Kelly and Colin Hetherington gave a presentation on Digital Marketing. Good content and advice for companies on how to get started with online social networks, blogging and some other cool examples.

Here’s the thing, I saw plenty of jaw-drops within the audience when some basic things were discussed. As Evert Bopp wrote recently: “Think that a blog is a character from Star Trek?”

Here are a couple of videos with the speakers’ advise on how to get ready before approaching a digital marketing agency and whether outsorucing your social media efforts is viable or not…

Go video! …and make a difference

Posted on Saturday, March 21, 2009 by Fred

Hi all,

As you know, Channelship chooses video as one of the main ways of communication.
Every month we test new video platforms to discover new value and better ways to communicate with our audience.

Today is animoto.com’s turn.

This is a perfect tool to create professional music videos. It’s very user-friendly and so intersting that you could spend hours creating stuff and posting it to different social media sites.

In this case I used the free version, however, for a few quid you can include your company’s logo and even implement a call to action!
I have re-cycled a couple of Slide Share presentations. It literally took me 5 minutes to make these two videos :) Hope you enjoy them!
