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!

Bizcamp Dublin: Great success

Posted on Sunday, March 8, 2009 by Fred

Hi all,
This time, networking fell on a Saturday. I was really looking forward to Bizcamp not only because of the speakers but also to finally meet and interact with many people that I network online.

Bizcamp Dublin was a great success. The event was very organised, the venue perfect for the occasion and the presentations covered key points to develop a strong business.
I had the pleasure to meet David Behan, Jason Roe, Keith Shirley, Andrew Tobin, Aedan Ryan and Campbell Scott (Video below)…

121 Marketing. “First Wednesday” business event

Posted on Friday, March 6, 2009 by Fred

Last Wednesday was networking night again and the Channelship team landed at The Mint Bar (Westin Hotel) for the 121 Marketing event, “First Wednesday”, lead by Karina Heavey.
It was our first time joining this grup “offline” and I have to say: we enjoyed it!

One of the most important things is that 90% all all the faces were new! That’s a fantastic way to meet more people and refresh the agenda.
We realised that by networking at traditional business networks like Dublin Chamber, SFA, etc, you get to see the same people too often, which is good to build long-term relationships, however Wednesday night, was great for a change :)

This network has been growing consistently and it’s not just for “Marketing professionals” as you may think. You will find a nice mix of people. We encourage absolutely anybody to join and explore opportunities within this networking group.
