Hi, I’m Keith.
Since launching the Velvet Escape site in June 2008 and the Velvet Escape blog in December 2008, I’ve gained a wealth of experience in utilising social media channels for marketing, community/relationship-building and networking purposes. Via Twitter, facebook and LinkedIn, I’ve built an extensive network of contacts in the travel and hospitality industry, travel writers and bloggers, editors, columnists and social media experts across the world.
I launched Velvet Connect in September 2009 to advise businesses, organisations and individuals on how to utilise social media effectively and build mutually-beneficial, value-driven relationships.
Services
- Social media advisory: I can help businesses or organisations plan and execute their social media strategy. This includes determining the client’s social media objectives, which channels are most suited and provision of practical tips and advice during the execution phase.
- Social media training and coaching: I can also train clients in the effective use of social media to build communities and forge value-driven relationships. Training can be provided on a one-on-one basis or as a seminar. I also provide coaching services to help optimise the client’s social media presence. These include problem-solving assistance and advising on effective engagement and relationship-building techniques.
- Marketing: I can assist travel and/or international-oriented businesses and organisations (including non-profits) with their marketing efforts via Twitter by utilising the influential Velvet Escape network.
- Networking and recruitment: With my wide and varied network of contacts within travel and social media circles, I am able to assist with referrals and creating networking opportunities. By utilising my networks, I can also assist with recruitment for social media manager positions.
- Advertising: The Velvet Connect site is new but growing rapidly. Should you be interested in advertising your product or service on Velvet Connect, a flat monthly rate of EUR 30 for a 300(w)X120(h) banner in the side bar is currently being offered for a minimum duration of three months.
Should you be interested in any of the Velvet Connect services, if you have a business proposal, or if you are interested in advertising possibilities, please get in touch with me via this contact form.
