Growing your community
You can’t be a rock star…… unless you’ve got a bunch of hits

Success is understanding your audience
Build upon your previous “hits” – what was hot, what
wasn’t?
Give them what they want

CSR and social
CSR isn’t just a box tick, a day in a field planting trees..
it’s pervasive and your audience expects to see you doing this within social media…

Get involved in something relevant
Dedicate real resources – time, budget…
Expect nothing in return

Innovate
Go a bit GaGa every now and then…
Push the boundaries of the tech…

User generated reality
The single biggest driver of viral activity is human behaviour
34
Be bold, be a bit crazy
Scare yourself…and your team
Be brave

and I want to change the world. I have a chance to do
both”
