Facebook Changes

Facebook are due to change their Facebook Terms and Policies, I feel like they are being open in their approach to sharing their information:

In January 2015 they are due to bring out the following:

-          Testing a ‘Buy Button’ – similar to what Twitter have just released, Facebook are going to be testing out a quicker way for customers to make purchases on their site and they will be working on new ways to make it more convenient.

-         Understanding how they gather their information on you – They will be releasing a way for you to see how they have got your information (for example locations, check-ins, suggested tags)

-          Opt out of ads on all devices – Currently when you opt out of seeing a certain Facebook Ad on your laptop you will still see it on your other devices, in January they will be launching a way that when you opt out of seeing that Ad on one device you will not see it on any other mobile/computer device.

-          Ad Preferences – These are going to be available to certain countries including UK. You will be able to see WHY you are seeing that Ad… How did they know I was looking at that? How did they know I was interested in this?

They are also letting everyone know exactly what ‘family companies’ they have. For example – Instagram and WhatsApp.

Back to the normal lay out of my blogs now...

I have had a busy month, winning the FSB Awards to building my training courses... If you didn't know Look C are now offering training on Social Media tailored to fit your needs. For more information on these take a look at our website

If you didn't know already...

A different blog!

This blog is going to be very different to usual. I have some major news and a few thank you's I would like to make. Look C have been running for 2 years in September and have been lucky enough to have a lot of advice and support of other businesses in this time. So to cut to the chase... Our news is...

FSB BEDFORDSHIRE AWARDS 2014 OVERALL COUNTY WINNER!

This is huge and incredibly rewarding. I cannot believe that this night happened but it did. Last year, I was delighted to be Young Business Person of the Year 2013... This year to be able to hold that title is just fantastic! I can't quite pin my finger on one word that sums up how I feel about it.  When I went onto the stage to collect my Young Business Person of the Year 2014 Award I decided to take a selfie. It had to be done, after all... I had to update my Twitter Feed, and saw an opportunity for a selfie ;)

We had an amazing night, the FSB Awards lived up to my expectations in terms of atmosphere, there was a buzz in the room and businesses were there to celebrate and talk about each others success.

Now onto the thank you's....
Big thanks to my parents! The most supportive parents EVER. I really wouldn't be doing what I am doing if they weren't so understanding and amazing. They joined me at the awards and when we heard I won the overall award and I saw their faces we all looked so shocked, they looked like they could burst they were so happy for me. The best feeling to see your parents be that proud of you!

My family are all so supportive, especially my niece Willow! She's going to be my sales team from now on! They're always there and I can't ask for anything more :)

24-7 Networking Group.... You guys are all amazing. Thank you for all the advice you give and all the banter early on a Friday morning, I don't know where else I'd get that at that early hour haha! Thanks guys.

Thanks to individuals as well who I will list a few as I'm sure this is turning out to be quite cheesy... Chesca, Kevin, Lou, Tina, Wolfy, Freya, Chris, Jo, Ben and many others of my friends :)


My Top Tip for this month... APPLY FOR AWARDS! They're so worth it regardless of winning, the evenings and even becoming a finalist is amazing! 

Thank you all :)

March 2014

What happened in March then? Well, to be honest with you, what happened to March! It flew by so fast. The clocks have changed and it's getting warmer, which I like, let's just hope that I am not jinxing it by saying this. If I have, sorry everyone. 

Something that is going to be a common theme in this blog is making your social media fun for you to do and your followers to see. Be different. I have said in previous blogs about how important it is so be social, but you have to have fun doing it as it will reflect on your audience if you don't.

So, I will be covering my January favourites and what happened to me at the beginning at 2014 also including a top tip for the month which I really think is vital to your social media. 

So this month I went to NYC! Had an amazing time, got to see my family and had just a lovely experience. So here are a few pictures of my time out there. It was SO cold I can't even explain, so please don't judge me on my hat!

December 2013 was an amazing time of year for my family and I. 
We celebrated the arrival of my beautiful niece, Willow Isabella O'Keefe. 
Christmas with my family.
My birthday! 
And I saw the end of a very exciting 2013 but fully look forward to what 2014 has in store for Look C. It's going to be a big one!

Christmas is getting closer and closer! Starting to look towards 2014 goals now and see what the future holds. If you don't use Social Media to promote your business already then make it your New Years Resolution.
