WHAT WE DO

Kisky Netmedia is an award winning Social Media specialist. We work with a range of platforms, technologies, and tools. With lots of experience in web, multimedia and mobile, we have naturally come to love using Social Media tools as part of all our projects. We continue to use our broad online experience but focus on Social Media Strategy; helping forward thinking clients thrive in the Social Media Space. We work with leading businesses and organisations in the UK and further afield.

RESEARCH AND TREND ANALYSIS

We conduct research into Social Media and Web 2.0 trends. It's not just about what we use personally, but about exploring emerging trends in specific sectors, in specific markets. As researchers we're able to assess the social media landscape and provide analysis of how new and emerging trends will affect your business. We have extensive experience of providing research services to technology, tourism, and cultural sector businesses and organisations. Deep research projects lead to more informed, successful and organic Social Media Strategies.

TECHNOLOGY PRODUCT STRATEGY

Having worked on many large scale web products and services we have deep experience in developing great user experiences online. We help our clients to design and create useful, usable and pleasurable web experiences and services. For example, we recently provided strategy services to the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology, helping to them to devise and implement FACT TV a soon to be launched Video Art - On - Demand solution.

SOCIAL CAMPAIGNS

We devise and implement projects using Social Media and 2.0 tools. We work with blogs, podcasts, online video, social networks and mobile platforms to build communities of interest around events, brands, products and ideas. We nurture niche interest groups in various online spaces; photography enthusiasts in Flickr, partygoers in MySpace, social geeks in Facebook are some obvious examples. Because we understand the dynamics of online communities we are able to gain traction for ideas and grow networks and communities by devising, implementing and managing social media campaigns. Our diverse team includes experts in community development, social marketing, advertising and PR, and of course development: Yes we can build Facebook apps; but only if we think it's right for your business!

BLOGS

Businesses are still not blogging like they should be, and we can help! Blogging can be an excellent way for a business to get to know its community of customers; personally. Blogging is not about one way communication, but about ongoing, dynamic, multidirectional conversations. As well as offering blog design and implementation services (we love Wordpress), we also offer services in the more important aspects of blogging; how to blog. We make sure you have something that looks good and that does you good. We help with blog promotion and building organic readership, content planning and management strategies, and of course blog etiquette. We can also help businesses who are new to blogging to undertake 'readiness to blog' exercises, ensuring that their blog experience is successful and enjoyable.

SOCIAL EVENTS

A long time ago Kisky Directors Katie and Paul went to Barcamp in Amsterdam. They met wonderful people, heard amazing ideas, and fell in love with the 'unconference' model. This 2.0 approach to events is about opening traditional conference models, enabling more people to share, and more ideas to flourish. Having run our own unconference and hackathon, we now offer 'Social Event Services'; running unconferences, and promoting events to, and with communities of interest. We also talk about our work in this space at events and conferences.

SOCIAL MEDIA COACHING

Social Media tools are designed for all of us to use. We can help you use them in your own projects. We deliver professional, personalised training through seminars and workshops helping organisations quickly get to grips with blogging, podcasting, and living online. We are often asked to provide "Show me Social Media!" sessions for clients and we always tailor these to the particular business or organisation. Our coaching services focus on helping you to enhance your web presence using social media tools; in 2008 it's true to say that having a great website is no longer enough!

CHANGE 2.0

2.0 is not just about a new set of tools or a new technology investment opportunity. Web 2.0 has defined a new set of principles that are changing how people interact and do business. We help our clients and their teams to learn about new technologies and principles and how they can best use them in their organisation. We recognise that Social Media projects are about adopting a new way of working and we help businesses and groups adapt to the new opportunities technology brings. As well as providing action strategies for businesses and organisations we aim to support them in their transition to the culture of 2.0.
