Joe Meldrum

Joe came to talk to us about how to make get yourself out there keep good connections

He told us his three Golden Rules:

1. What do you want to achieve

2. What do your audience want to know

3. Client building - maintaining relationships - say thank you

Making contacts can sometimes save promotion as they know of your work and this means you can create connections because they might tell someone else of your work

Look at www.theaudienceagency.org when organising an event as it will tell you about what sort of people like certain things, this will allow you to market your event right.

Facebook - good for promoting events

Twitter - more for business - sharing other people’s work - 80% on personal feed should be other people’s work, 20% should be your own work

Instagram - use hashtags to help promote/sell work

Trust in yourself that you are good at what you do and you know what you are talking about
