Twitter has been dominating the social media headlines this month, not least because it’s going to be taken over by the richest man in the world!
Twitter is a powerful PR war room platform and crises are won and lost there.
In today’s show I’m exploring the role of Twitter for your PR strategy and as a former journalist this is a specialist topic for me.
Coming up in this episode:
- > Let’s talk about the Twitter Takeover by Elon Musk
- > What is Twitter influence?
- > How can Twitter support your PR efforts?
- > I speak to Inspector Antoinette Cunningham, General Secretary of the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors about the role of Twitter in her position as head of an representative organisation
