When it comes to working in social media, we’re often scientists as much as we are artists. And, you know what’s a key part of being a scientist, don’t you…experimenting. It’s also the theme of this episode.
Our guest is Matt Horne, Newcastle University’s Digital Marketing and Social Media Manager and master of making the most of experimenting on social media, trying out new tools and, crucially, learning things from those tests.
In our chat we talk about how you can get into the habit of experimenting on social media, why doing so should be part of every social media professional’s skillset in 2018 as well as throwing in references to Zane Lowe, ducks and Ru Paul.
