Hi, guys. It’s Monday again and I am so pumped up as this week I am going to the Take It Offline roundtable in Brighton organised by Tom, Andy and Gerry White. Learning from the best is always a good practice especially so in the universe of Digital Marketing where everything changes at light speed.
Learning should be part of your company culture.
Customers nowadays are transforming faster than we are. So if we don’t catch up we gonna be in big, massive trouble.

Yes, Steven. I can educate your SEO executives but tell me are they involved in the strategic planning. Probably not.
I will tell you a secret now.
In many small companies, there is no formal manager training. People do well, they get promoted. So he knows Adwords, he gets to manage the digital marketing team and before you know it he is defining your SEO strategy, your Social media strategy. And this is actually a good example. I’m not even gonna mention the digital marketing director does not even come from digital.
Pro tip Steven.
Everybody in your organisation should know the basics of everything that is Digital Marketing.
Thursday morning. First I’m gonna go to work and then I’m gonna go to the Take It Offline roundtable in Brighton. I know it’s gonna be very very good so if you happened to be in Brighton or somewhere around Brighton come say hello.
It’s one thirty in the morning and I just came back from the Take It Offline event in Brighton. I am super tired but I am also super excited as I’ve learnt so much this evening.
The main thing: Social Media advertising can be extremely effective for many businesses but getting it right is not always straightforward. I guess it all comes down to you have to try and fail, try and fail until you find yourself in the right place at the right moment for success.
Friday morning. Seve o’clock. I’ve probably slept for two hours but I’ve just remembered that I’d forgot to say something yesterday. Andy, Gerry, Tom you rock guys. Your event is getting better and better every single time. Now I’m gonna go and do my first Facebook campaign. Gerry, I’d probably experiment with your video.
One of the best things about life is that we never have to stop learning. There are always new skills to learn and new techniques for us to adopt. When you look at the most successful people in the world, they understand this. Big and successful companies like Facebook or Google are heavily investing into their own employees. Or the way I normally say it:
Without doing something beyond of what you’ve already mastered, you will never grow.
Guys, next week let’s all of us try and spend an hour learning something outside of our comfort zone. So if you are a developer learn a bit of SEO. If you are an SEO learn a little bit of PPC.
Meanwhile, don’t forget to come back here next Sunday cause you’ve got the problems and I’ve got the solutions.
