Twitter: are you a digital manager’s nightmare? November 27th 2011

OK, let’s presume that you’ve made your Digital Marketing Manager happy and signed up for a Twitter account. Now what?

I’ve helped clients large and small to integrate Twitter into their planned marketing and comms activities. Just like other communication channels, the key is to decide at the outset if and how it can work for you.

I recently worked with a client who wasn’t yet at the point of needing a social media strategy. She needed a simple walk-through to see how she could use Twitter for her charity HR business and voluntary work. We went right back to basics during the session, so I thought I’d share a few of the points we looked at.

If you’re thinking about using Twitter, or if you’ve had a bit of a go and need some ideas about the next steps, I hope this is food for thought. And feel free to share my ‘27 ways to get more out of twitter‘.

ethicaledge website launches October 7th 2011

I’m thrilled to announce that the new ethicaledge® digital charity recruitment website has launched at www.myethicaledge.co.uk.

I developed the ethicaledge® recruitment service to help connect digital and social media specialists with amazing charity jobs. I hope you will find the service useful if you’re looking for a charity communications job and you have some or all of the following experience:

  • Digital Marketing, Fundraising & Communications
  • Social Media
  • Web Design & Analytics
  • Online PR
  • Multi-media
  • SEO

You won’t find a jobs board on the ethicaledge communications recruitment website because I prefer to connect personally with prospective candidates. Jobs will appear from time to time on this blog, and on Twitter, Facebook and on the main charity jobs boards.

The feedback so far has been fantastic. I’ve had lots of great comments about the unique design, great illustrations and the fresh approach that’s unlike any other charity recruitment site. I worked with ethical website designer Anna Celeste Watson (who also designed this blog) and illustrator Stu Jones who have done a fantastic job bringing my vision to life. Thanks guys!
