UK Marketing Lounge Announcement | 29th April 2010
Jobseeker charges, social media, sub-groups, marketing events and little old ladies…
It’s BIG and it’s CLEVER – that’s the UK Marketing Lounge: Your rural retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life. It’s a fresh pot of tea and marmalade on toast compared to the other less salubrious hang-outs.
Here’s the news this week:
Discussions
Topically, Peter Scoffham asks: “Is political marketing becoming unsophisticated?” Dangerous game, politics, but you can shout the odds here
Twitter is a growing phenomenon with even the staunchest anti-tweet zealot finding themselves in 140-character-ville. But how useful is it for you and what do you make of the search functions? Use as many characters as you like and get involved in this discussion here
Over at the blog…
LinkedIn has started charging for jobseeker services. Apparently it helps you ‘stand out from the crowd’, but what’s really in it for you when you’re looking for a job? Share your views.
What happens when you receive a job counter-offer? It’s a perilous business, that’s for sure. Read what can happen and share your views.

We’re all off to the WI to pretend we’re ministerial. But when we get there we’ll dress up in a kilt, dye our hair ginger and, in our most audible Scottish brogues, shout “bigots” through the letterbox, before scuttling off back home. That will learn ‘em.
