There’s just 6 weeks to go now until KMP’s seminar on the topic of Reputation Management takes place in Manchester on the 7th May! But, if you can’t wait until then, don’t worry! In the weeks running up to the seminar, I am going to be profiling the speakers and giving you a sneak preview of what you can expect from each of their presentations. As well as this, I’m going to let you in on a bit of background information about each of the speakers so that you can get to know them a bit before the seminar! First up this week, we have KMP’s very own Managing Director – Jon Keefe! Jon was one of the original founders of KMP in 1991, and has embraced internet technologies since 1995, helping organisations to understand how they can benefit from digital innovation. Jon has steered KMP from its inception in 1991 at the end of the last UK recession, through the Dot com crash to the steady growth and profitability it returns today. This experience overlaid on 13 years digital expertise in the public and private sector means Jon brings extensive knowledge and insight to any organisation and their digital strategy. Jon has also been a long time supporter of Manchester Digital, the trade association for ICT and New Media in the Northwest and an advisor to The Big Chip awards since they were first held in 1997. Jon will be presenting the keynote presentation, entitled “Are you ready to manage your reputation?” Jon will be finding out just how “social media ready” your company is, where he will be discussing the resources and skills available in your company vs what is required.

KMP’s Reputation Management seminar which was scheduled for the 26th March has now been rescheduled for the Thursday 7th May. All the other details are to remain the same, including the line up of speakers, the location and venue!

KMP will be hosting a Blogging for Business workshop, which takes place on Wednesday 11th March at the MDDA in Manchester. Back by popular demand, we are hosting this workshop again for those who were unable to attend previous workshops which were fully booked. Hosted by KMP’s Client Service Manager, Gerry Daring alongside well known Journalist and Blogger, Craig McGinty, this workshop is already looking to be another sell-out. This workshop is a complete guide to blogging, where Gerry and Craig will be discussing the background of blogging, showing you how to get started and set up your own blog, as well as providing ideas and tips on how to engage with the blogging community. This practical and hands-on workshop is ideal for those who have heard about blogging and not sure if it is a good idea for their business, those who have seen business blogs and want to start their own, or even people who may have started their own business blogs, but aren’t sure how best to do it. Only a limited number of places are available, so make sure that you book early to avoid disappointment. Tickets cost £125 + VAT. Book Now!
