Weston Communications on how to see who has RT’d a tweet on twitter

If you’re into twitter and want to see who it re tweeting or RTing your tweets you can use the original twitter platform to see just that. It’s very useful to us at the moment, because we are running a number of twitter based competitions for clients based on RT’s. So I thought it would [...]

Weston Communications on: Using LinkedIn for networking

Disclaimer – this is a quick blog, following another conversation I had online today… It is not intended to be a comprehensive guide, it’s just a “starters for 10” on how we are using LinkedIn for networking. Networking doesn’t have to be face to face. I appreciate that there is a definite benefit to face [...]

The Weston Communications blog on: starting a blogging challenge…

So, I’ve decided  (the team will be *thrilled* to hear this, with everything else that we are doing in January) to get going and do a blogging challenge. But I’m going to cheat and spread the blogging across this blog – the Weston Communications blog, the UKBabyShows.co.uk blog and the New Baby Guides blog so [...]

The Weston Communications blog on “unmarketing”…

I just found some notes I made whilst on holiday this year, reading the book “unmarketing“. So I thought I’d share them on here. It’s a bit random, but this is what it is and if it helps you, sparks an idea, or gives you something to ponder on, then there’s a benefit to it. [...]

The Weston Communications blog on: practising what you preach

I feel guilty. I should practise what I preach – to blog regularly, that there’s always something to write about. And I honestly didn’t know what to write about this morning, not least because I’m working with two tiddlers in their PJ’s bouncing around me. I’ve got ben ten and spiderman playing literally at and [...]

The Weston Communications blog on: The “rules” of Social Media….

I had a really great, engaging, active conversation with some really smart, focused women at the Mums Studio today. My job was to facilitate the questions, answer them as best I could and get other people to give me their opinions on my suggestions, opinions and experience. And no one held back. It was great.

The Weston Communications Blog on: Mums in Business

One of our lovely clients Baby Swap or Shop have featured in an article in The Mirror and we couldn’t be more pleased! It’s no secret that Baby Swap or Shop is something that I wish I’d thought of myself. It’s a cost effective way of parents to find things they really need at a [...]
