Earlier this week, I presented on the topic of ‘Social media for lawyers: How to achieve your online goals without throwing away chargeable hours’
in the Royal Faculty of Procurators in Glasgow, an event hosted by the TANQ Society. The background to the presentation was as follows:-
“With the legal market still in a state of radical evolution, these remain challenging times for lawyers in the relatively early stages of their careers. Effective use of social media can undoubtedly help lawyers not only develop a strong personal brand, but it can also be a powerful business development tool. This presentation will consider how you can produce powerful results through social platforms such as LinkedIn, Twitter and blogs without wasting your time.”
With a great turnout (although not quite the 60 who signed up), we had a live tweeting display of the Twitter hashtag #TANQsocial – see the picture above. This was done via visibletweets.com and I’d recommend you give it a shot for your next presentation.
Thanks to cold case blogger and lawyer Vidster I’ve assembled the hashtag tweets into the table at the foot of this page. If you’d like to get in touch to discuss the ideas contained in the presentation further (the slides are just a mere skeleton) please don’t hesitate to contact me here or get in touch with our team at Moore Legal Technology.
