The platform shift has been fascinating to watch. While LinkedIn became my professional hub, X/Twitter got... complicated. But Bluesky? It feels like coming home to that cool community vibe πŸ¦‹ #Journalism #PublicRelations #Marketing

My first front page story as a trainee journalist came from Twitter circa 2010. Back then, hardly anyone in the newsroom was using it - they thought I was wild for sourcing stories there πŸ˜…

5️⃣ Don't let your comms strategy gather dust! πŸ“

βœ… Test it with clients
βœ… Adjust based on results
βœ… Keep it living and breathing

A strategy in a drawer helps no one.

Make it work for you!

4️⃣ Where does your audience live online? 🌐

Trade publications? πŸ“°
LinkedIn? πŸ’Ό
BlueSky? πŸ¦‹

Go where they go. Speak their language. Share their concerns.

Your product isn't for everyone - and that's okay!

3️⃣ Understanding your audience is everything!

Know their:

βœ…Pain points 😣
βœ…Professional fears 😰
βœ…Preferences πŸ’•

Your strategy should address REAL problems with REAL solutions.

1️⃣ Everyone isn't an audience! 🎯

Your neighbour's dog isn't your target market (unless you're selling dog toys πŸ•).

Know WHO you're talking to.

Every last drop of marketing spend should work hard for your business and support your sales goals.
