You may have already heard about Ian elsewhere on the information super highway.

If not here’s a short intro …

With over 30 years as an IT Business Strategist, and 7 years experience of helping over 150 businesses, including several of the UK’s top brands such as Marks & Spencer and DC Thomson (publishers of The Beano, The Dandy, Peoples Friend etc.) manage their social media and digital marketing activities. Ian is a highly passionate evangelist about social media who is truly adept at helping even the most technology-averse feel entirely comfortable with new ideas so they fully support the adoption of new, smarter ways of doing business.

His inspiring presentations are packed to the brim with with easy to follow real-world examples of how other businesses are using social media technologies to outshine their competitors and get more business. Ian then breaks these examples down into simple to follow steps, and shares his personalised insights of business winning strategies so that we can adopt them as soon as we get back to the office.

If you are looking for a self proclaimed guru that spouts techno-babble, geek-speak, or want to be blinded by science then Ian’s definitely not for you!

However, if you are after straight talking, plain English from a business strategist with expert insight into the technical world who has been there and done it, Ian’s your man.

Ian’s creation “The SuperBlog“, and the way he explains how to use Social Networking to grow your client base to attract more business,  is an incredibly effective marketing tool that has completely transformed the way I attract new clients and do business with them. It is surprisingly easy to do, and all without spending too much of my valuable time or money!

Larry Lloyd Speaking Up

Ian gave us a highly charged and passionate presentation, which was packed to the brim with everything I needed to know in order to get myself and our communications team up to speed, and we actually implemented our social media strategy the very next day. As an IT Director myself, his delivery was non condescending, and was a lesson in itself on how I should be communicating technology to my board. I highly recommend Ian, particularly if you need to gain the necessary buy-in and commitment from other stakeholders within your organisation to implement a social media strategy.
