Internet World 2011 – Summary of the Social Media Seminars
Yesterday I took a trip to Internet World at Earl’s Court in London. It’s a leading digital marketing and social media event with hundreds of companies exhibiting their latest products and software solutions. Thousands of visitors attend the 3 day event to learn about the latest developments in social media strategy, ecommerce, online marketing, content management and analytics, amongst many others.There were some speakers from the big names in the industry such as Google, Facebook, Ogilvy and E-bay but you had to pay to attend most of those.
I chose to go for the cheap route and queue up for the free seminars that were available in the different seminar theatres. The main ones I was interested in was ‘The Future of Social Media‘, ‘Digital & Mobile Marketing‘ and ‘Content Management‘. There were a wide range of topics and sometimes it was difficult to chose which ones to go to. However, the fact that you had to queue for about 20 minutes to get into every seminar meant that the day passed pretty quickly without being able to attend as many sessions as I would have liked.

What makes an effective website for a construction product manufacturer?
OUTCOMES!! GOALS!! ACTIONS!!
In the mid 90’s many businesses within the construction industry and professional practices set up their websites with the mindset of ‘My website is a shop window to my business’. If you still work with this mindset and attitude to your web presence then you are missing out on a massive opportunity to enhance your brand and gain more leads. You will also be totally unaware of where your prospects are and what they are looking for. What if I told you “Yes, your website is a window BUT… nobody is coming into your shop to have a look around!” or “You are getting visitors but they are not doing anything, they are going elsewhere”.Read More

Straight to the point – Construction copywriting
There’s no point in putting together a wonderfully integrated marketing campaign if the words don’t ring bells for the readers. Writing good ad copy isn’t easy. The more I read other people’s marketing literature the more I realise that writing is a talent that not everyone has. There’s the architects firm which promises to “assist” its clients when I’m sure what the clients need is someone to carry out the job – not assist them. There’s the quantity surveyors practice that offers me the “best possible solution”. It’s so easy to fluff around the subject and not say exactly what you mean.Read More
