An Interactive Online Seminar with the V&A (London) and the Women’s Museum: An Institute for the Future (Dallas)
Thursday 17 December
THE PROGRAMME | THE SPEAKERS | HOW DOES AN ONLINE SEMINAR WORK?
Twitter is the fastest-growing social media platform and in many ways particularly well suited to the needs of museums and cultural organisations. Join us on 17 December for this Interactive Online Seminar in which two of the world’s most popular museums on Twitter – with over 24,000 followers between them – share the secrets of what’s working and what’s not – and what makes their Twitter presence so successful.
Among the key topics to be covered in this highly-practical interactive seminar will be:
- Making the case for Twitter to your organization
- Steps to starting a Twitter account: profile, image and tone of voice
- Listening: using searches and alerts to your advantage
- Getting the word out: gaining a following, working with lists and directories
- Content and conversations: what to tweet about – tips and tie-ins
- Using images, audio and video
- Managing your time: structure, policies and useful software
- Benefits and analytics
WHAT OUR DELEGATES SAY: A great presentation – very inspirational and well-documented. Delegate from the Zentrum Paul Klee, Bern, Switzerland
You’ll join colleagues from The Franklin Institute, Whitechapel Gallery, National Gallery, Glenbow Museum, Speed Art Museum, Collections Trust, National Library of Sweden, Parks Canada, Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, English Heritage, National Archives and very many more!
You’ll have the opportunity to hear direct from experts, pinpoint in advance the areas you’d like them to explore, and ask questions to get the information you need to enhance – or start – your Twitter presence!
You’ll look over the shoulders of the staff who tweet for both organisations as they show to you in detail exactly how they do it, and share the tips and tricks of how they make maximum use of the platform.
Plus your single registration fee is valid for you and a group of your colleagues to participate in the Seminar – and to access the recorded sessions after the event!
