Liberate Media is growing

October 18th, 2007

If you’re a regular reader of our blog you’ll know that it’s been a hectic but successful first year for Liberate Media.

The PR and digital media industry is evolving at an exciting pace, and from day one it has been our focus to keep Liberate Media at the forefront of this change.

As a result, we’re currently looking to expand, and have a number of opportunities to grow the services we currently offer, both in terms of PR and the wider realm of digital communications. We’re looking for experienced communicators to join our senior team, and although a background in PR would prepare you well for a role with Liberate Media, we’re also eager to hear from applicants with other digital media and communications backgrounds.

So, if you like the look of the blog and consider us an interesting company to watch, and think you could bring an exciting new dimension to Liberate Media, then please get in contact. We’d love to hear from you.

88% of businesses expected to increase social media spending in 2008

October 17th, 2007

I’m a bit short of time this week (as you’ve probably gathered from our lack of posts!)…but this survey by community content management system provider Prospero is really worth checking out.

The research is US-focused, but the findings seem equally applicable to the UK market, and is very encouraging for digital communications consultancies like ourselves.

Key findings:

“59 percent of respondents reported that social media performance in 2007 met or exceeded their marketing objectives, boosting future spending expectations — with 31 percent planning to spend significantly more on social media applications in 2008.”

Full findings here.
