The fast emergence of social media network sites like Facebook andYouTube and the rise of blogs, wikis, virtual 3D worlds and podcasting present fresh communications challenges and opportunities.

Call it ‘web 2.0’ or the new web, the fact is we are all participating in the rise of a vast global platform for computation and collaboration that is re-shaping many aspects of business communications (both internal and external). Based in Brighton, It’sOpen is a specialist independent communications service which was set up by Justin Hunt, previously a new media technology commentator for The Guardian.

We provide a range of social mediaservices including:

Bespoke ‘social’ content (published online or offline) using leading journalists where we apply social media principles to improve the brand experience

In-depth research and monitoring of what blogs and social media networks are saying about your brands and your industry;

Blog and podcasting marketing campaigns to build brand identity and demonstrate thought leadership;

Engagement with your online communities using the latest social media applications to improve sales;

Advising and managing engagement with virtual 3D worlds to extend the reach of your brand.

Advice on the application of social media to internal communications to improve knowledge-sharing, team work and improve productivity.

To help you gain valuable knowledge and a better understanding of the latest social media developments, we run executive social media briefings which are a valuable opportunity to ask a range of leading experts questions in a safe environment in order to explore how social media is relevant to your business and how it can form part of your strategic communications going forward. We create the content of the briefings with you - we don’t impose a standard format on everyone.

We are called It’sOpen because we don’t restrict you to one group of employees in one organisation. Instead we openly collaborate with a range of specialist social media partners and individuals from many organisations so we can remain innovative and continually add value to the services we offer you.
