Visme Online presentation review


Visme is an online presentation platform that is used for creating presentations. These presentations can range from business presentations, to analysis, and school presentations. The fantastic thing about visme is that infographics are present and they are animated. This allows the creator to capture your audience’s attention. The infographics are eye catchy and the presentations created on visme really hook your audience. Furthermore, as for the presentation platform videos, pictures, music, and text are all included in which drive home your point to your audience in interesting ways. Moreover, the option of managing the layout of your presentation allows for smooth sailing to create a powerful presentation. As for a recommendation I think that more features should be added like more animated features such as people and items. Overall the online presentation platform  is great to use.

ORM COMPARISONS

Comparisons between two ORM giants 

-TRUST YOU VS. REVIEW PRO-


First of all, what is ORM?

It stands for Hotel Reputation Management, is a practice of monitoring and positively influencing the image of the hotel throughout the web.

So, positive feedback from satisfied guests sharing their experiences with your Hotel and with their friends and rest of the world is very important for hotels. Negative reviews should be used to improve the quality of the Hotel. For this reason, it is becoming more and more important for you as a hotelier to build up a professional Hotel Reputation Management





So as you can see Online Reputation Management occurs after the guest stayed at the hotel, it can harm a lot when they write bad reviews, however this can have less impact by using mobile advantages, for example sending an E-mail directly, a short call any type of contact after their departure or during their departure asking about their stayed, making them personal so guests can tell you directly what is going on with their stay.

Thinkific and videonot.es Review



Thinkific:

Is a web-site that allows you to distribute courses online. Either you are a  sole proprietor, large corporation or school. Thinkific allows businesses and schools to build web-sites which are specifically created to build your brand and also to grow your audience.
The site is free but with limited capabilities. If you subscribe for annually or monthly subscriptions, you will be able to enjoy more services.
It is a great platform for teaching staff or students in schools who are providing online courses.

Videonote:

Videonot.es is a video note web page that allows the user to take notes as a video is playing. I think that this would be very useful for presentations. If videos need to be shown to classes or provide lectures to groups of people. Videonot.es would be ideal to not only just watch  videos but to co-ordinate the video. The notes can also be shared and also placed on evernote. Videonot.es is an opensource platform.

How to Recognise Potential #Bloggers and #Influencers for Social Media Purposes?

How to Recognise Potential Bloggers and Influencers for Social Media Purposes?


Well first of all what are “potential bloggers” and “influencers”
The internet is full of comments, recommendations, legends and myths, too much information we can get overwhelmed and the most important which one is true or reliable?


There are couple of people out there, who are very active in blogs and social media this true influencers drive action not just awareness, as said by - Jay Baer
+Jay Baer 


They are the ones who can move the internet world in good or bad ways
You want them, because normally consumers will trust more third parties recommendations than your own, they will believe it more they will be curious and get engaged with the information you provide and ultimately with your own brand, you will attract not just your audience but their audience too.

There are couple of things to consider before considering a potential blogger/influencer and publishing their posts


  • Monitor Social Media

    Who is there talking about your niche? if you are talking about paris look for them in your own social





  • Read

    Read through their posts of your potential bloggers to determine if they write about relevant post topics that can compel your audience, are they fun? are they too serious? are they original? are they visually attractive! remember pictures and video attract more than long same format reading.





  • Reliable Source

Do they have any degree or specialization in what they are talking about? Better they do! also, if they have been talking about that for years probably they already have some good knowledge about it




  • Often Posting

Internet and the world itself is moving extremely fast, loads of information get to our hands in seconds, so if you are looking for a post try them to be as up to date as possible.. Information changes and updates constantly.



If we don’t consider these couple of questions before posting to our social we can be giving wrong information to our guests or customers, that will lead to bad reputation from our company, or website, confusion and anger, leading to bad events like: they will never get back to you and your audience will drop, dramatically… forever…

#rezzolutions - #citizenMRotterdam New Year's Eve

Lucky me - I won a free stay from +citizenMHotels and selected the Rotterdam hotel.  Am here for FreeNYE and will check out the fireworks over Erasmus Bridge - a mere 2 minute walk from the hotel - to viewing space!!

What is especially fun is that each employee is sporting a Tshirt with #rezzolutions on the back - and a cheeky chic saying on the front.


#rezzolutions - here are 3 I spotted

  • Right bed, right time...with the right person
  • Power Nap yourself to Awesomeness
  • Turn off your phone, turn on your partner
Each cool, fun + insightful.  Each staff member got to select (online) their preference - et voila, that's what each gets to wear.

More NYE at #citizenMRotterdam later....wishing you and yours a 2016 full of adventures and original thinking.
