The song I was humming was ‘I don’t trust myself’ …you can listen to it if you want ..after!

Annnnd, for no other reason than I like this photo, here’s a photograph from the Ironman here in Melbourne - I’ve no idea what was going on, but people seem interested in that chap in the middle. Bonus points if you can tell me who he is.

A chap sizing up his bicycle, or the group of cyclists on the ground at the Melbourne Ironman from years ago!

That was a little dramatic, sorry about that! Influencers aren’t really behaving badly, more like they just don’t really consider the business side of what they’re doing before they do it. Anyway, we gloss over that, talk new clients and there’s an invitation to a photography challenge on dPS.

Using the same list of hashtags over and over again is spammy, you should stop it.

The answer is 30, but really? You have 30 relevant hashtags for that little piece of content? Well, ok then. 

Here's that mug I was talking about... Thanks, Sony!

Homework! Tag me in a post on social me-dia, show me you know your salt from your pepper #hashtags 

Question? -> Comments!

Shall we have coffee? (And by that I mean, should I have coffee and think of you during the next podcast?) 

Kinda funny to me, so many agencies and people managing basic social media requirements come up with so many shiny names for stuff! Anyways, that's a digression...

Here's podcast ten, it's half as long (Sorry, Lee.. geez) as the last one in celebration of reaching ten podcasts on my own. 

Oh, yeah, I may sing a little social media ditty at the end, sorry about that...

Here's a random photograph of me out creating content...

Today we answer Etty's question "Do brands pay for social media content" and we touch on GDPR (link below, as per my utterance in the podcast) then we considered talking about Influencers some more, but stopped ourselves... 

Finding user generated content can be daunting, but it’s not too hard if you use a couple of easy to use, free tools.

UGC, Photos, Sharing, Making your own content and so so so much more (or less) This is a complex topic, so we’ll go into detail on the different aspects, in the coming weeks.
