We’re getting some storming feedback from business leaders spanning manufacturing,  leadership development and world class speakers who signed up to Quest’s Social Media Strategy courses.

The sessions spark some lively debates with videos highlighting some brilliant ‘viral successes’ like Bensons Beds employees Domino Mattress attempt and how a Dominoes Pizza apology went down a Tweet! Media guru Amy Korin tweeted her gripe to thousands of followers.

Our next courses are on Thursday 15 July and Wednesday 28 July. To book your place or find out more please email sue@quest-pr.com or telephone 01423 564192.

We’re also launching a series of video blogging courses in the knowledge that videos are 50 times more likely to receive an organic first page ranking than traditional text pages. With YouTube second only to Google as a ranking heavyweight, you can produce videos for little cost and maximum impact. Here’s how to get started: 

1. Get a YouTube account

2. Buy lights, camera and microphone and practice first

3. Rehearse your blog presentation until you feel comfortable with it

4. Choose vibrant backgrounds

5. Keep youp posts to under 3 minutes (remember we live in a soundbite society!)

6. Learn how to edit
