Digital PR: my education at thebluedoor
I am thrilled to be starting 2010 with an eight week internship at the Surrey PR agency, thebluedoor. After completing PR placements in London in the travel and tourism sector last year, I am eager to continue my education and learn from a PR agency that is growing rapidly with exciting prospects for the year ahead.
thebluedoor – its clients and its digital PR expertise – offered me an internship which I was delighted to accept. As a relatively new PR agency I felt that I would be able to both learn from their experience as well as significantly aid the team in implementing PR strategies and campaigns for their wide portfolio of impressive consumer, B2B and digital brands. And from speaking to the team, I know that the coming two months will greatly improve my knowledge of PR and the importance of digitised communication for businesses.
And I’ve not been disappointed: on my first day I was I was asked to help organise a Tweet-up, inviting interested Tweeps in the Farnham, Surrey and Hampshire areas to meet and celebrate Twitter and its effects upon the world of PR, communications and business. I’m really excited about this project as it will provide me with first-hand knowledge of digital and social networking tools such as blogs and Twitter, and getting to grips with their power beyond sharing what I’ve eaten for breakfast.I know I’m going to be challenged and supported whilst at thebluedoor, they have committed to ensuring that I learn rather than just being thrown in at the deep end. And having met the team, I know that as well as some hard work, there should also be plenty of fun to be had along the way.

Good luck Liam. Do you have any more details about the Tweetup and have you thought about contacting the Thames Valley Social Media Cafe team that meet in farnborough and Reading once a month?
Hi Liam, good luck. You are with a truly great bunch of people to learn from, as well as having the opportunity to make a contribution. Look forward to meeting you at the Tweet-up. I'll see who I can get along also. There's lots of Ecademy people in and around Farnham on Twitter also.
Thanks Paul for the pointer - yes, we know @benjaminellis well! Do come along to the Tweetup - it would be great to meet with you. Best wishes, Abigail
