social media
and me
I start writing valuable content
about here
social media and my
work today
●My personal blog & twitter profle have 2,500 followers and allows me to
promote my ideas about the future of journalism and build my own brand as
a journalist

●My storytelling blog is becoming a key way to push my business' unique
position as expert storytellers to the non-proft market

I blog occasionally for OWNI.eu, the European Journalism Centre and
●


Duckrabbit.

●I use Twitter to build my brand and add value to my readers – by sharing
links

●   I read hundreds of blogs to keep up with trends, ideas and research stories
does social media make
money?
My social media work has brought me work, stories, commissions,
invitations, the chance to speak at great events like this....




           ...but directly, it has never made me a penny



           (but then it's never cost me anything either)
social media has changed
journalism
the end of
fortress
journalism
we are no longer talking at our
audiences

we are not even talking to our
audiences
we are no longer talking at our
audiences

we are not even talking to our
audiences


we are talking with them
"The idea is to open the
newspaper to the readers, to put
them on the same level, and give
the daily a more social feeling"
       Borja Echevarría, deputy editor of El País
15,000 signed-up subscribers
100,000 readers a day
Make social media part of your
armoury
Use it as a way to fnd and share information as
a story develops
Appeal for eye witnesses to events        Break news to your audience with
                                          Twitter & Facebook
Appeal for photographs and video if you
can't get there yourself                  With running stories use CoverItLive to
                                          create on going commentary
Use Facebook to fnd case studies and
source trends                             Be transparent about your
                                          newsgathering process
Get readers to contribute to your
coverage                                  Get reporters on the scene to fle raw
                                          video with fip cams...
Crowdsource data mining
                                          ...or record short audio commentaries
