We are all having a pint or two down the pub and talking about:

Creating online fan bases…How to and how NOT to

A lot has changed since the Romans set up the first tabernae, where people used to get together to gossip, exchange experiences and mainly…well, get pissed.

But even though nowadays, when 1 in 8 couples getting married are meeting online, where social media is more popular than porn, and where Facebook would be the 4th largest country in the world, people still get together down the pub. So come on down.

When?

Thursday 8th July, starting 6:30pm

The evening will be relaxed and informal.

• Pre-paid bar, so help yourself! As long as you can get home
• Introductory talk by Face, the co-creation planning agency
• A number of 2-3 minute presentations throughout the evening on successful experiences in cultivating and creating fan bases online…as well as some colossal screw-ups to learn from
• Vox pops and snippets of insight from individuals
• Come and go however you please
• No fancy-pants jargon

Where?
