Social Media courses

I recently taught a short course in Social media in the Western Management Centre, in Galway. The course took place over a full day, with 2 3-hour sessions with a lunch break, and it’s full title was ‘Social Media – A business, sales & marketing tool‘.

‘The training course is ideally suited to individuals / businesses who want to learn how to use Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. as part of their marketing strategy to gain a competitive edge, and that are interested in understanding how Social Media can have a positive impact on the revenue and awareness of their respective businesses.’

We’ve run the course twice now and it’s been very well received, the next course is available now for booking from Western Management Centre’s website here.

New website for Heather Finn Knitwear

Artist-makers Online have just completed a website re-design for Heather Finn Knitwear. This early spring clean to Heather’s site fuses some of her existing branding elements and put them together with a new photoshoot, a wordpress theme customisation and a sleeker online shop. Some of the custom illustration and logo design was used in her work for years, but it has been dusted off, given a make-over and re-used. The result is a new site with a new feel, that employs her familiar branding in a new way, and acts as an effective hub for her overall online presence.

The site highlights their Award-winning Fruit and Veg Box Scheme which has recently won the Bord Bia’s ‘National Organic Awards’, Organic Box Scheme of the Year 2010.
