🎉 Today Kirsty is celebrating 10 years on LinkedIn! 🎉

In just the past year of her professional journey on LinkedIn:
📈 Her personal content received 17,880 views! She's especially glad to have sparked conversations there, as it's not the primary platform used for business.

🤝 She connected with 65 amazing professionals to open further exciting opportunities and insights. That number is astonishing, because if you've heard Kirsty talk about her use of personal and professional profiles, you will have heard that she prefers to connect with those whom she's met in person, or who we have a working relationship with. This number is reflective of how many people she's crossed paths with recently.

🙃 In the last 10 years she's seen many comings & goings of features & connections, evolutions & improvements of the platform over the years. Arriving long before Microsoft owned the platform, thinking about 10 years of learning how to use & leverage content for herself & our clients on the platform, surely makes her some kind of LinkedIn veteran!

Happy LinkedIn anniversary Kirsty!

The internet nearly broke after all the Ladies hearing that we wouldn't be hosting another Ladies Who Long Lunch long lunch in 2024 😂😆🤩 but just because we aren't hosting a long lunch, does not mean we're taking a six month leave of absence!

Although if someone is giving away a trip to the Maldives or a cruise liner trip, we're open to it 😆

But in reality, it's going to be quite the opposite.

Instead of only one more event to come to round out the year, we've got two in the planning stages. We're very excited to be returning to Scarborough for a Summer Sunset Vibes event on the 1st November. So put that in your diary NOW! This will be launched for sale in September.

This event picks up the afternoon Cocktail Networking part of our regular long lunch program, and places it into it's own official event. Aren't we clever?!

Who's been following our event series long enough to remember where our Scarborough location is at? Can you guess if you're new around here?

Well we'll be pleased to bring more details about this day soon. But for now... save the date!

📲 Friday 1st November for Summer Sunset Vibes ☀🍸🤩🥂

🖱🖥⌨️ We spend many days of our year designing documents for clients including newsletters, business cards, brochures, labels, postcards, magnets, certificates, large format signage and so much more.

But we also design templates for social media for clients to use to publish to their accounts, and to continue to use in future to create a consistent colour palette and utilise their branding with confidence and pride 💛💙

As part of our DIY Marketing approach for micro-business owners and volunteer organisations in particular, we'd love to encourage you to develop your own skills to create designs for your social media too 📲 You don't need a million Apps or a graphic design degree to get started either.

But why do we encourage this?

Most of our micro-business clients are in their initial phase of startup. Years 1-2 in business particularly overwhelm with you need to do to bring income in. This naturally includes all the marketing, because without marketing, you can't make sales. And during this time, it's hard to spare much budget to outsource to professionals with everything you need.

We constantly promote the use of Canva to assist, as it has ready made templates for use. And well bingo! 🎯 Who doesn't want done-for-you designs?

But if you aren't doing so well with figuring out how to use Canva, or you want personal instruction on getting started, book in for our Canva for Beginners Workshop. This has been our most popular and constantly requested workshop, so we're running it again on Wednesday 7th August.

📌 Bookings can be made via the Shop on the socialocean.com.au website.

Today Kirsty has the pleasure of being at Judge for the 2024 AusMumpreneur Awards.

What an honour to be able to interview Finalists for their category! Not only to read about their stories but hear first hand about how they are changing the worlds of their customers and communities.

23/07/2024

As part of this week's AusMumpreneur program, today is Interview Day for Kirsty! As a Finalist in the 2024 Event Business of the Year, she'll be participating in an interview with four Judges as the final stage to determine the outcome.

Keep her in your thoughts this morning!

Decisions will be made, and announcements made next month.

We know it's not just us who seems to be overwhelmingly busy. And it's times like this where our consistency drops.

We're tired.

To be honest, you don't event have to be busy - or tired - to loose consistency. It takes very little to get distracted, or frustrated, or plain old bored with the day in and day out of organising yourself to run your own campaigns.

Writing content with purpose, instead of the haphazardness of being busy and looming deadlines, isn't fun. This task will start to look too hard, awfully hard, in the blink of distraction.

To help you learn better habits - or habits you can revert to - at times like this, attend the BIG Brains Trust quarterly working bees with Kirsty from Social Ocean and Leanne from Leanne Blaney - Master Your Mountain. The content workshop gives you templates, suggestions and social media guidance to help you find inspiration in times of deep dark content despair!

The next event is on Friday September 27th and has just launched for booking.

Tickets available via our website: https://socialocean.com.au/product/big-brains-trust-single/

About Tuesday.... Tuesday is our regular networking day for members of the Social Ocean team! But our absolute favourite group to go to is the one that Kirsty (right) Founded with Leanne (left) back in 2017. And that's the Ocean Network.

For 7 years they've hosted two free networking events per month at The Belvedere Hotel in Woody Point.

Even when hotels weren't open to the public, events were still held online. And when the hotel underwent renovations, they just changed venues temporarily. Nothing can stop this pair from supporting business owners!

If you've never heard of the Ocean Network, or you've only just found out about the group, get along to these mornings. Mark it in the diary now! It's the second Tuesday and the fourth Tuesday each month February to November. They start at 7:30am.

We've enjoyed a fantastic morning with the North Lakes Chamber Of Commerce this morning. It was a sold out event!

Kirsty joined a panel of small business owners, which was led by Rod White from the Small Business Financial Counselling Service - Southern Queensland.

Her fellow panel were asked for contributions about resilience, how they keep numbers rolling, ROI, KPIs, mitigating disaster and followed some brilliant remarks from Rod about 5 Keys To Business Success.

A great way to lead in to interesting discussions on how to thrive as a small business by getting the basics right.

Kylie and Kirsty both enjoyed a beautiful breakfast, and had the opportunity of meeting and chatting with Members of the Chamber at the conclusion of the morning.

Do you spend time creating content based on using images only? e.g. you post a picture to your social media, but you don't add the additional content (the written text part).

Search engines don't really understand images as a stand alone item. So if you are using an image with text written on it, Google can't read that, or assist others by putting you in to their search results.

In plain language, if you're making images with text only, your images won't assist Google figure you out.

Elements to help Google figure you out include:
📌 Naming your images with words,
📌 Adding alternate text & descriptions on social media posts,
📌 Indexing images and content on your website with Google correctly,
📌 Using text elements in addition to your images e.g. captions or titles, or re-type the quote seen on the image in the description box.

The alternate text options are extra important on your website. But they will be more important on social media if you're yet to create your website, as your social accounts work in place of a website until it exists.

Great news has been delivered this week from the team behind the AusMumpreneur Awards, with wonderful notes and congratulations about Kirsty being named as a FINALIST in two categories this year.

This is the second year Kirsty has been a Finalist in the Events Business Award category, and a wonderful acknowledgement for her efforts across the last year with many big events including all the amazing Ladies Who Long Lunch events, Ocean Network events, training workshops, guest speaking presentations, Moreton Bay Says No 2 Violence annual march, the Redcliffe Community Christmas Lunch and many more exciting projects yet to come!

In 2023, Kirsty won the Silver Trophy for the People's Choice Local Community Business Award, which is a publicly voted award that will open in a couple of weeks. We'll let you know about that when the time comes to be able to support this acknowledgement for the wonderful work she does for the local small business community, NFP, community organisations and her philanthropic projects too.

She gets our Social Ocean vote, that's for sure, and we can't wait to see how she goes at the National Awards in Melbourne in August!

One of our clients has recently needed to change their property phone number after a change of lessee. This caused a bit of a fuss, because the business has hundreds of external links to it on global accommodation booking websites.

But the easiest and most important place for it to be updated was on Google.

Amongst the lessee change, the Google profile ownership had also experienced a situation where the business edit/update to it's phone number wasn't accepted for publication by Google. Therefore, the old phone number was still being reflected as the point of contact.

As one of two key points of information that other booking sites would publicly access this could have become a much worse issue for our clients.

Thankfully though Kirsty's Google Scout Level means that she is a trusted resource, and her edits to the profile were immediately accepted and implemented.

When you have issues with your Google Profile, reach out to us at Social Ocean for assistance - and we'll put Kirsty onto the task to fix it in a jiffy!

📣📣📣 What a fabulous weekend for Kylie!

Our social media researcher and content creator, Kylie Milstead was named as the Redcliffe Tigers AFC's 30th Life Member on Saturday at a special event held at the club.

Kylie has been an integral volunteer and active supporter of the Redcliffe Tigers for more than 25 years!

Her multifaceted contributions to the club are a testament to her unwavering commitment and passion for the sport and community, and have included roles such as Game Day Awards Coordinator, Social Media Manager, Sponsorship Coordinator, Media Manager and Advertising Coordinator.

In addition to these more formal roles, Kylie is also an event manager and event stylist for the Club's big celebratory days held across the year. It is super special this acknowledgement was even able to be kept a secret from her!

With both her children playing for the Tigers over the years, volunteering to such a level, whilst being a footy Mum is a full-time role. Much of Kylie's work is done behind the scenes, without awareness by the greater club community, such is the importance and quiet achievements made by amazing volunteers.

Her dedication to her variety of roles at the Redcliffe Tigers are well-known amongst the local business community, as she manages key relationships with stakeholders, Most recently this work resulted in landing the Club's biggest long term sponsorship deal to date. A landmark deal formalising those community and business ties to sport locally.

Club President, Gayle Wetzel Fitzgerald said at the Life Members' Day event where Kylie was awarded her Life Membership, that "Her ability to cultivate and nurture vital partnerships has been instrumental in securing the resources necessary for our sustainability and growth".

👏🤩🏆 Congratulations Kylie for your hard-work and passion, and being a fabulous community role model and supporter for our younger generations.

💛🖤 You are gold Kylie and we're so pleased for you!

The power of networking can create wonderful impact on you personally, and on your business professionally. This is a great story about our Candle Mate Shirlee from Starfish Scarborough who reached out to her Designer Mate Kirsty from @socialoceanau and then reached out to her Printer Mate Evan from @kwikkopyeaglefarm to get new product packaging organised for an upcoming event. By the way, you can order these sensational smelling candles and diffusers in this custom-made scent from Shirlee or at the upcoming Jetty 2 Jetty fun run in Moreton Bay. Needs some new mates in business? Find them at The Ocean Network!

Earlier this week, Kirsty was able to tour around some of the Moreton Bay Christmas Trees off the Redcliffe Peninsula, thanks to Robyn and Terry at @busyconnecting We know those of you local to Redcliffe probably know that Kirsty started a local Facebook Group for fellow Redcliffe locals who also share the annual interest in Christmas Light touring. This year the group has grown significantly! But if you aren't in it, where are you? Search "Redcliffe Christmas Lights 2023", for the local low down on lights you should check out... or to add yours!

Across the last month, Kirsty has been working toward to the Moreton Bay Says No 2 Violence event with her Steering Committee peers. On Friday hundreds of our peers, business connections, community organisation pals and family joined us in raising our voices against violence. Emotions were big. Tears were shed. But smiles always prevail with support of each other. We've learnt so much along the way. Though our area of action is working on logistics and promotions, the conversations and education and advocacy we've been honoured to be a part of is special for us. If you missed this event, and want to join next year, the date is Friday 31st May 2024. #moretonbaysaysno2violence #raiseyourvoiceagainstviolence #mbsn2v #SocialOcean #wesayno #ENCIRCLE #teammoretonbay #moretonbaybusiness #qldpolice #CADA #r#redrider #stopdomesticviolence #redcliffe

It was an amazing time at the @ausmumpreneur Awards night last week, & so many people have been asking questions about everything at the event. It was a lovely evening with about 400 women & men enjoying dinner & drinks at Dockside in Darling Harbour, Sydney. A wonderful setting for them to come together to cheer each other on. A room full of joy & inspiration of what sensational things are happening in the Aussie landscape of Mum's in Business. Bringing home a Silver Award was simply the icing on the cake. #ausmum23 #ausmumpreneur #ausmumawards

Event life is exciting, hectic, hard work & after several months of planning always brings a smile to our faces. Offering experiences for women in business is an absolute pleasure, and our ongoing collaboration with Jo from Quirky Habits doing so is the most fun! #ladieswholonglunch #SocialOcean #eventslife #eventsmarketing #onfridayswelunch #womeninbusinessqld #whatsonbrisbane #internationalwomensday2023

Hey! It's International Women's Day so we're celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. It's not another "mother's day" where we want men to do things for us to feel appreciated for efforts as the person raising your kids. Don't make jokes to women about it. Globally we're trying to be treated equally. Today we mark the day to spark conversation, recognition and action by the power-holders to: 🔥 be paid equally 🔥 given the promotions we worked hard for 🔥 have the right to go to school because we want to 🔥 reduce abuse in & out of the home 🔥 recognise our reproductive power 🔥 remove gender bias 🔥 accept we do stuff better than men sometimes, the same way men do stuff better than us sometimes Don't make jokes in your staff room about how you can make the lives of women you work with easier by doing the dishes - or cooking a meal for your Mrs tonight. Women's Equality is NO JOKE! Instead..... 📌 Ask what International Women's Day means for your colleagues? 📌 Would they like to recognise the day more in your workplace? 📌 Ask if there are there circumstances that they know require action or support to remove? 📌 Ask if they would they like to celebrate over lunch today? 📌 Check if your colleagues are being paid the same as you for an equal role. Simply say "Happy International Women's Day"! #internationalwomensday2023 #IWD2023

🔥 NEW 🔥 logo design completed for our quirky client and Social Ocean buddy Jo for her rebrand into Quirky Habits 🌈 Jo wanted to add more colour into her branding to reflect the vibrancy of her personality and identity workshops and programs she runs for her clients. After completing independent research after our consult to help her think about and understand some design "quirks", her fully customised word logo was created. As a result the Quirky Habits logo incorporates three different fonts! The Q itself has been fully stylised in shape, size, font and tail to interact successfully with the rest of the logo. And it was Jo's hands-on assistance and initial research that sparked the idea of incorporating a face within the open space of the Q too. Representing her target audience clearly, the feminised face in the centre clearly reflects her clientele. We loved working on this project and are so excited for all the exciting elements and events across launch week this week! #graphicdesign #logodesign #SocialOcean

We held a lovely celebration for Janet's 80th birthday at a country hotel in Sunbury, Victoria. This private event was organised along with three of Janet's children who live in two different states of Australia and in Ireland, UK. It was an afternoon of personal touches to honour Janet and her 80 amazing years of love of life as an educator, woman of faith, mother, wife and dedicated community volunteer. It was a pleasure to assist with the event logistics, graphic design, personal touches and coordination of guests with the extended family members of Daughter-in-laws and Cousins helping to put smiles on the faces of long separated friends and family. Happy birthday Janet!

Merry Christmas Ocean Network! Thanks for a wonderful year of business networking, business building & friendships 🥂 Special mention to The Belvedere at Woody Point who have been our biggest supporters - and continue to be after 5 years of Tuesday morning breakfasts. #OceanNetwork #thebel #KirstyFields #LeanneBlaney #moretonbaybusiness #teammoretonbay #redcliffe

T I K T O K H A B I T Instagram announced last month that there would be a preferential issue against users reposting video content that hasn't been organically created or loaded directly into it's platform. The people to be most notably affected are those using video visibly marked as for another platform (that's TikTok video folks). Instagram can read the video is branded for other platforms - and no longer will they allow that "other brand" to be reaching as many of your Followers by them. We aren't tiktokers (obviously, we don't even know the lingo), but you could save your video files to your smartphone and repost the other way and do some testing between accounts to see if you can repurpose one video file from Instagram to TikTok instead. #socialmediatips #goingviral #SocialOcean
