Advanced Social Media

In the world of consultation and engagement, social media runs much deeper than stakeholder comms and marketing. It can be used to find influencers, gauge current sentiment on a key issue or help to reach seldom heard audiences due to their massive prevalence. Social Media is particularly beneficial during pre-consultation when it can be used to warm up a debate and, in turn, lead to increased take-up during a proceeding formal consultation.
