Content ExampleCommunications | Advocacy | Campaigns

• ‘Consultant’ is a pretty vague term. Here is what I can do for you –

• write clear, jargon-free English (articles, reports, film scripts, press releases, campaign materials, web content)

• shoot and edit video (DSLR & Adobe Premiere Pro) and produce films for the web• oversee graphic designers and web developers• generate ideas and devise strategy• deliver published materials on time and on budge

LinkedIn Groups-How to Make it work?81% of the users are connected to the same group

• How to participate and add value?

You can join up to 50 groups but let’s face it—you and your colleagues may not have the time to invest in cultivating conversations, connections and relationships at that volume. Remember its not for selling! • Find top groupsWeigh in on active discussions and point fellow group members to additional information of value, whether that’s content published by your company or another organisation.

If you have been marked for moderations by one moderator it will mark you all across.

The key is to position yourself as a trusted and helpful peer rather than as a marketer focused on reeling in the next customer.

If you are a moderator publish clear rules e.g don't promote blogs.
