Over time I’ve found myself doing more and more foundational work for organizations looking to dip their toes into social media. One of the key elements of this work, in my opinion, is creating a social media policy that fits well with the organization’s goals, culture and risk tolerance. But where to start? As it happens, lots of organizations publish their social media guidelines online, ready for you to review and use yourself.

Why is it so important to be # 1 (beside the fact that no one remembers #2)? According to information leaked on AOL (AOL results are fed by Google): #1 position on Google search results page is worth 8.5 times more than #5 position. This, in terms of clicks, time spent on page leading to proportionate increase in leads, conversions and so on. The first five results attract a whopping three quarters of the total clicks!

While Facebook is mailing signs to businesses, I’m pretty sure no one is helping them understand Twitter – for free anyways. After all, Twitter is for narcissists , right? It occurred to me the other day that the phrase, “Follow us&# or “Follow me on Twitter&# is getting things off to the wrong start. Businesses should all aspire to connect with people who are engaged and interested in conversation, creating a value exchange – Twitter is just one of many tools to

Liam Fitzpatrick wrote a controversial post earlier this month, saying that he thought writing skills are over-rated for communicators: “To be honest I don’t think being a good writer matters – I’ve met plenty of great comms people who couldn’t write to save their lives and I know a few fantastic writers who I’d never trust to give communications advice.&#.

So how do you buy your t-shirts, or shoes? Well, you saw someone wearing a nice converse shoe, and you end up asking him -where did he get one from.
