(Sunny Dong | Daily Trojan)The No. 13 USC women's volleyball team moved into sole possession of second place in the Pac-12 over the weekend, answering a loss to No. 25 Washington with a victory over No. 19 Washington State. The Trojans dropped a four-set match to the Huskies on Thursday, but came out on top in four sets against the Cougars Sunday afternoon.The Women of Troy were left without several starters for both matches, including junior outside hitter Khalia Lanier and sophomore outside hitter Brooke Botkin, who were both under concussion protocol.Junior outside hitter Emily Baptista led the team against Washington with 24 kills and 18 digs. The Trojans hit .262 in the loss.The Women of Troy were in a better place by Sunday. Senior libero Victoria Garrick had 24 digs for the Women of Troy. Baptista again led the way with 17 more kills, and credited her teammates for setting her up for success throughout the match. "I've got to give it to the passers," Baptista said after Sunday's match. "I think our passing was pretty great [and] allowed our setter to move the ball around so the blockers weren't always on me. I think our defense and passing were really great so that allowed for me to get a lot of kills today." Sunday's Trojans looked like an entirely different team than the one that fell to Washington State earlier this season in a five-set road loss in mid-October. The team remembered that match when it faced off against the Cougars for the second time Sunday Baptista said."We were really motivated this game since the last time we played them was a heartbreaker," Baptista said. "Even though we're missing a couple players, we [said] 'OK, we're going to play for revenge, we're going to play for the people that aren't able to be with us right now.'" Baptista said the victory will be important for the team's confidence moving forward, considering how short-handed the squad was against the Cougars."We're missing a few girls, and all three of them are starters, so I think it gives us a lot of confidence that we can be a very good team — that we can beat ranked teams like Washington State — with girls who don't normally play," Baptista said. "That gives us a lot of confidence for [the] rest of the season."The Trojans took a commanding 2-0 set lead with a pair of 25-18 wins before dropping the third set 25-22, but finished the deal with a fourth-set victory of the same score."[Winning the first set] is a big deal," head coach Brent Crouch said. "We've been talking about that for a few weeks, about coming out really strong. 'Announcing ourselves' has been kind of a phrase we've been talking about a lot. We came out swinging."Crouch echoed Baptista's sentiments about the importance of the victory, which helped the Trojans' confidence. USC only has four regular season matches — and only one at the Galen Center — until playoffs begin. "We're missing half our starting lineup," Crouch said. "Getting some new experience is great heading into the tournament. And the people that are hurt — it may not be the end of the world for them just to get some rest right now … It's just a really good team bonding, team culture experience because everyone is getting to play now." For the most part, the Trojans survived missing a few starters. The Cougars' late comeback attempt ultimately failed, but the Trojans didn't waltz to the finish line."We didn't overcome [the injuries] very much in the last two sets, but the first two we did a nice job — we passed pretty well," Crouch said. "The last two sets, that's where we really missed [the injured players] — when we're not passing real well, they're still able to get us kills, and when we started passing off the net in the third and fourth sets [we were] not able to get kills."The team focused on defense in the days leading up to the Washington State match. The Trojans proved themselves by holding the Cougars to a .098 hitting percentage, compared to a .193 percentage for USC. The Women of Troy had 12 blocks in the match. "That ended up being the difference," Crouch said of the defense. "You don't have to do a lot of offense if you're doing that." The Trojans will head to Arizona this weekend for a Friday match against No. 20 Arizona and a Sunday contest with Arizona State.

I don't normally collect Hot Wheels' premium line cars, but this one was definitely on my 'want list' the moment it was announced.
This is the RWB Porsche 930 from the HW Car Culture 'Silhouettes' series, and it's a stunner. There's just something about this RWB (Rauh Welt Begriff) bodykit that lends itself well to the HW Porsche casting. Maybe it's because the HW casting has a low-stance cartoony look and the RWB bodykit just meshes so well. I don't know how to put it in other terms but it's just perfect.
To improve the looks, I painted the rims gold to match the real-life 'Stella Artois' car. To me the gold paint marker improves an otherwise drab black wheeled car.
I'm gonna leave you guys with more photos of this awesome casting. Here's hoping that the HW-RWB partnership will give us a 993 and 964 in the future...
Thanks for viewing and have yourselves a fantastic weekend!

The Gold Medal bestowed by the jury at Berlin's international competition, one of the most significant in the world, endorses the great trajectory of the Cuatro Rayas Sauvignon.
La Seca (Valladolid), February 27, 2012. - Cuatro Rayas Sauvignon wine has been awarded a Gold Medal at the Berliner Wein Trophy (Berlin's international competition) among nearly 6,000 wines from 31 wine-producing countries. This most recent recognition highlights the quality of this wine, which, despite having only three vintages brought to market thus far, is one of the most prized Sauvignon Blancs from the Rueda denomination.
DWM- Deutsche Wein Marketing GmbH hosts Berlin's international competition, which is sponsored by the OIV (International Organization of Vine and Wine) and is recognized by Berlin's Senate and the European Union.
Cuatro Rayas Sauvignon was presented in 2009 as the Winery's latest offering to complete its line of varietals. Since its launch, the wine has received national and international acclaim. Distinguished accolades include the Gold Medal at the 2009 Zarcillo Awards, the Silver Medal at London's International Wine Challenge, nearly 90 points rated by noted wine gurus Robert Parker and the Peñin Guide, and the Silver Baco prizes conferred by the Spanish Association of Wine Tasters upon the 2009 and 2010 vintages.

Natasha has returned from holiday early and heads straight over to Faye's house with a bottle of wine. Cain watches in the distance as Faye reluctantly invites Natasha in and takes great delight in informing Mark that his two favourite women are having a chat at Faye's house. Natasha is firm as she reminds Faye about their agreement that she'd disappear and leave them alone. However, Faye seems unfazed by Natasha's threats and claims she'll do whatever is best for Ryan and if that means him finding out the truth then so be it. Natasha's reiterates that Mark is not interested in her or Ryan and is furious when Faye reveals that Mark rescued Ryan from the crash at the shop. Angry that Ryan and Nathan are bonding she's determined to put a stop to it and is enraged when Mark suggests they pack up and leave the village. Refusing to be driven out of her own home by Faye, Natasha vows to scupper her plans to use Ryan to win Mark back. Brenda feels terrible that her actions have forced Terry to give up his chance to make his dreams of the B&B a reality, but Terry assures her that she's more important to him and decides to part with his savings. Meanwhile, Jimmy and Nicola have been reassured the baby is going to be okay and are besotted with her. However, Carl continues to snap at Lexi and feels uncomfortable being around the baby with her.

IKEA has a long history of collaboration. In fact, it's been at the heart of how we've developed products from the very beginning. From working with independent product developers and other companies like LEGO and Sonos, we've always collaborated and put our customers' needs first. But now with new tools and technologies, we're able to involve partners in new ways—from customers to co-workers to factory workers.
Johan Ejdemo, who leads the Ideas & Exploration team, has a furniture design and product development background that spans over 30 years. Within the last 10 years he has been involved in a new way of working at IKEA, and more recently he began working at Co-create IKEA, where new ideas are developed through collaboration with people from around the world.
"When I was a cabinetmaker, I would come to people's homes and talk with them," says Johan. "Together, we looked at their needs, the problems they wanted to solve and how the solutions could play a role in their lives. Interestingly, when we looked at problems and solutions together, we would come up with more ideas."
In the past, IKEA co-workers would do home visits in other countries so they could learn from our customers. Now with IKEA co-creation, we have the ability to meet with thousands of customers around the world. Imagine the possibilities when you have a dialogue with that many people in the early product development stage.
(Spoiler alert) This way of working doesn't start with products
"The way we involve people is different than most companies," says Johan. "We engage them at the problem level."
One of the things the team emphasize is that a solution to a problem is not always a product. It could be a service or a change of habit. And while the co-creation method is often focused on current needs, it can also identify future needs, because they put a lot of energy into conducting research, studying changing behaviours and identifying micro and macro trends like
In addition to working closely with customers, the entire company has opened up new ways of working with suppliers, and that is an integral component of co-creation at IKEA. About six or seven years ago, the company started inviting suppliers to collaborate in order to create better products through improved form, function, quality, sustainability and cost. Now our suppliers are a more integrated part of the early product development process.
We're also continually gathering knowledge about other cultures as we enter into new markets. For example, we know so much more about China and India now that we have more of a presence in these countries. These learnings are shared throughout the company and continually influence our product development process.
The co-creation process
As you can imagine, it can be quite the challenge to harness very divergent ideas and the myriad of creative ideas that comprise the co-creation process. That's where people like Ian Thompson step in to help.
Ian has spent 18 years working with a human-centric approach to design and believes in putting peoples' needs at the heart of the product development process. He's been working on integrating the philosophy and methodology of co-creation into all of our product development teams.
While focused on human-centred design in the co-creation process, the trick for product development is to identify the problems people face today and project them forward to the needs of tomorrow.
"There's a famous saying attributed to Henry Ford," says Ian. "He said, 'If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.' You have to look beyond what people are saying and look at what the need is. And then because we are the experts, we can look at the needs more deeply and understand where to create value."
Real world examples of co-created solutions
One example of approaching problems from a broad perspective is based on an IKEA study on "sleep." There are so many factors that influence how well people sleep: from lighting to circadian patterns to age to their home environment. Sleep is also affected by stress levels and by the number of family members (and their ages).
So, while we make very good mattresses, they are not the complete solution to getting a good night's rest. Instead of coming up with solutions based on a product level, like mattresses, the team used this study to dig into the concept of sleep, to identify problems with a deeper and broader perspective, and to come up with solutions that addressed these learnings.
Another example of a co-creation solution is reflected in some recent work done around the concept of Fluid Lighting. Lights are something you turn off and on, right? Yes, but when you approach the concept of light fixtures from a human-centred perspective, you quickly adopt a new way of looking at them. Instead of starting with how a light fixture looks and functions, you start with understanding human activities and needs. These needs are then explored through what we call, "problem statements."
"In a busy home, activities happen everywhere and having the right light at the right place is a problem."
"Home for me is two different places but buying two of everything is not practical."
Starting with these (and five other) problem statements, our co-creation community worked on finding solutions to these commonly stated problems. The ideas were clustered and then fed into an offline workshop with the product development team and designers.
"The collaboration process is quite easy," says Johan. "In the early stages of dialogue we're not looking at the design yet, we're looking at the problem statements, which are basically the challenges and frustrations people experience."
Exploring the problem statements with the community gave a lot of new and unexpected insights into what people really find frustrating or challenging when it comes to lighting in their homes.
The product development team then built on those ideas and insights to create low-level prototypes, such as the one below, sharing them back with the community for feedback.
This philosophy of putting people's need first, of being curious, and collaborative, and willing to try new ways of working is built into the cultural DNA of IKEA: It's all about creating a better everyday life for the many people.
"It's interesting," says Ian, "when Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA, was around he was always asking questions. This way of working is about recognising the value of that and remaining an inquisitive company."

Welcome to Electronics!
Does your instrument require the power of Thor to be heard? Do you play a Kazoo and need it amplified? Do you play bagpipes, a didgeridoo or a harmonica? If you play an instrument and feel homeless because you don't fit in the other sections, then call us your home. We like to have fun with our instruments and play together.
We are the most noticeable section in the band because no other band marches electric basses, guitars, accordions, and electric kazoos. Who cares if we can't really "march"? We'll make it work and have fun while doing it. The best part about the section isn't the music though. The best part is the people you meet and the friends you make here. Weekly section bonding over dinner, Late-nights, and spontaneous boba adventures help bring us together and function better than any other section on the field and off.
We're one of a kind and we hope you join our family <3
-Sam R.

Most males think "fashion" means an easy suit-and-tie look. But we do not fault men for thinking by doing this - the pressed slacks, button-up shirt and customized jacket have lengthy defined designer clothing, also it can get pretty boring. While women have an endless number of skirts, dresses as well as formal pants (use them!), males obtain the same plain, solid colored suits their fathers used. However it does not need to be this way.
For style experience males can really use, we are loving Suit Up Strange, your blog that encourages men to push the limitations using their fashion choices, from unorthodox prints to cool neck ties. Each publish collects images within subject, for example ties, footwear, or perhaps whole clothes for fashion inspiration. The result from the photos is really a clean, well put-together look with a little flair that proves dressing to thrill does not mean always adhering to what's tried and tested. Men, be aware... and begin following a Tumblr here.

France is covered in a variety of natural landforms, ranging from the peaks of the Alps to the depths of the Gorges du Verdon. Visitors to this European nation can enjoy these natural formations in all seasons, taking part in low-impact walks or adrenalin-filled adventure sports such as rafting. Most of the major landforms in France offer lodging nearby, making it easy to stay in the area overnight.
The Alps
The French Alps stretch along the southeast side of the country, following the border with neighboring Italy. The highest point in the Alps, Mont Blanc, is in France and reaches 15,770 feet. The Alps are famously snow-capped in the winter months, and offer excellent skiing. In warmer months, the Alps also make for a good sightseeing destination or camping spot. Attractions in the Alps include Grenoble Bastille, served by France's oldest cable car, and The Chartreuse Cellars, which has the world's longest liqueur cellar.
Gorges du Verdon Canyon
In the southeast corner of France, to the west of Nice, sits the Gorges Du Verdon. Sometimes called Le Verdon, this canyon covers 11 miles and is up to 2,300 feet deep in some places. The cliffs in Gorges du Verdon were caused by erosion from the Verdon River. The region is home to more than 40 towns, many of which are located on the banks of the Verdon River. Activities in the canyon included white water rafting, paragliding and hiking.
Massif Central
The Massif Central mountain range in the southern edge of central France was formed by now-extinct volcanoes. Still, the volcanic soil that remains makes the range an ideal place to grow crops such as maize and tobacco. The largest protected environment in all of France is located in the Massif Central, comprised of two neighboring parks -- the Parc Naturel Regional des Volcans d'Auverge and the Parc Naturel Regional du Livradois-Forez. This rural area is a good place for horseback riding and cycling.
Loire River
The Loire River is the longest river in France, flowing from northwest to central France. In total, the river stretches for 193 miles and serves as the migratory channel for many animals, especially fish. The banks along the Loire are prime for observing wildlife and flora, such as birds, butterflies and wild orchids. Activities in the river include canoeing, flat-bottom boating and hiking along marked trails.

There's new music from Bob Mould. His latest album, Patch The Sky, comes out March 25. One of this legendary musician's biggest fans — from his punk days of Hüsker Dü to the land of Sugar and his prolific and exciting solo records — is musician Ryan Adams. And as a fan and friend, Ryan invited Bob to his PAX-AM Studio and pressed record.
So for the next hour you'll hear Bob and Ryan play music and hear a sprawling, geeky and fun conversation. Sometimes it's about Bob's record, other times it's about Metallica bootlegs, caveman sounding lyrics, favorite cereals, fasted band, how the revival of vinyl helps make better, more focused records, praying, the quietness of church, zombies, Einstürzende Neubauten, noise rock and recording/mixing/soundboards.
You'll also hear them break into song. Over the course of the hour-long conversation, they play three versions of two songs from Bob Mould's new album recorded right there in Ryan Adams' PAX-AM studio — they do "Hold On" and "The End of Things" together and then Bob plays "The End of Things" by himself. These aren't the recordings from Patch The Sky; it's just two friends, making music, having fun.

7 Things to Include Before Building a New Website
If you're sitting in front of your website and thinking that it's probably about time to give your website a much needed redesign, then you're not alone. There are plenty of businesses that designed their website initially without putting too much thought into the customer experience and the design. Just like updating your brand, you should also consider updating your online presence as it will benefit your business by providing trust, improving your credibility and strengthening your online brand awareness.
Here are our top tips to consider before building a New Website.
1. Newsletter Signup
Adding a sign-up form to your website is a great way to increase your customer database. Customers that love your brand and your products and services will want to be in the know for the special promotions, new releases and special events. Also developing your customer database, means that you have direct access to your target audience to advertise promotions to.
2. Clear & Beautiful Images
Always use high quality and professional images for your website to show off your products. It's a fine line where you want make sure that your website images will download quickly and won't impact your website speed, but you also don't want images that are pixelated. Using photoshop, you can easily set the pixel size for your website and also amend the resolution of the image. Still not sure, then get in contact with a graphic designer to help you.
3. Testimonials
Get in contact with your customers to find out if they will provide a testimonial from you. The best time to grab their testimonial is straight after they have used your product or service. It doesn't need to be long, but try to get them to mention the name of the product and service they purchased and their experience. You can also use testimonials from Facebook or from Google Reviews for your website. Testimonials are an extremely powerful way to add credibility and build trust for your brand, products and or services and will often be a driving force to converting customers when they're sitting on the fence about a product or service.
4. Your business's contact details
If you have business, that involves a fair amount of customer contact, for example a medical clinic, restaurant or hotel then it's fairly important that your contact details particularly email and phone number are easy to find and clear to read. For example you may want to consider placing the contact number of your business in the navigation header design of your website. Adding a Google map plugin with a location marker on your contact us page, will help customers in finding your business. Along with this, if you're business is located in a shopping centre, make sure that you give clear instructions on where they can find you. You can also upload images of your storefront to Google My Business, so they know what your business looks like from the outside.
5. Blogs and News to Improve Website SEO
Take your SEO up a notch by regularly writing a news article or blog about one of your products or services. Blogs are a form of inbound marketing, which means it's content that draws people to your website. Writing more on products or services add credibility and trust to your brand and also positions your business or yourself as an authority on that topic which leads to more people trusting your products and more likely to purchase your products and or services. In terms of SEO, make sure that your articles are long form articles and also include keywords or terms that your customers would be searching for.
6. Check mobile friendliness on your website
Mobile optimisation is about ensuring that visitors that access your website have an optimised experience while using that device. Every year, an increasing amount of people are using their mobile devices more often to access information. So it's no surprise here that mobile optimisation is a the top of the list when it comes to designing and building a new website.
Site design for a mobile is important, particularly for websites that have page banners, customers need to be able to clearly read the information no matter what device they are using. Our top tips for mobile site design, include not using flash, no pop ups and design for a fat finger for a better touch screen experience.
7. Use Colour Psychology
Using the colour red on your website is a powerful way to draw the eyes attention to a price or a sale. Red is synonymous for being associated with a sale, which in turn to most consumers means value. So why not create attention to products by changing the price to red or increasing the font size so that its clear to the site visitor. Some websites use green for their add to cart buttons, as green is associated as being safe and ready to go. Depending on your site design, colour can play a special part in the customer experience.

#3 Smart property website design – capture customer data
Say you did a good job at SEO / SEM and you appeared at the top of the search result, what is the next step to get your customers to engage with your brand and leave their information? The answer is simple, you need an engaging property website design. Besides providing information about your property projects, your property website design should also focus on another important element – Encourage home buyers to leave their contact details.
Provide information in a smart way
Home buyers who enter your property webpage desire for information about your projects. Make sure you give it to them in a smart way. Create a section in your property website design that requires viewers to enter their contact details for the exchange of information. The information can be a brochure for your new property project.
Besides offering information about your new project, you can also add value to your property website by giving home buyers something they are interested in. This can be an e-book regarding property trends, or even a beautifully designed brochure that highlights your project portfolio.

Avoid text heavy property website design
Property website design is all about capturing home buyers' eyes with attractive images. Make sure the copy is succinct and relevant to the home buyers. The headline should grab the home buyers' attention the moment they enter your property website. The body should be simple and to the point. If you are promoting a sale, make sure the copy communicates a sense of urgency. Also, remember to put a Call-to-Action (CTA) in your property website design to encourage conversion.
Simple, but attracting across different platforms
Amazing property photos are eye-catching to home buyers. However, make sure the images are not oversized, as it will slow down the loading speed of your property website. Also, as 89 percent of new home buyers are using mobile devices during the home buying process, remember to develop a mobile-friendly property landing page so you won't lose these leads.
#4 Email marketing – Engage your potential home buyers
What is the first thing your potential home buyers do when they go to work every morning? The answer is simple, open their emails. Electronic direct mail (EDM) is vital in property marketing, as the average open rate for real-estate based emails is more than 20%. The high conversion rate comes with only a minor cost compared to other property marketing channels. Also, it allows you to send out EDM to the customer database that you acquired from the property website.
EDM is also an ideal way to promote your content, such as blogs or your new property projects. However, avoid making your EDMs too much about sales. You have to ask yourself how do the emails benefit your home buyers. Make it engaging and personal, use subject lines that are less spammy and address home buyers personally.
Once you build a sizeable email database, you can start several automated email campaigns regarding different information about your new project development. The trick of sending out automated EDM is to send out multiple emails featuring different topics at different times. As people nowadays spend only limited time on one email, this avoids cramming your EDM with too much information in one single email. In addition, this reminds home buyers about your project from time to time and further keeps them engaged.
The first EDM could include the design and layout of the project. Once home buyers have a bit of picture about the project, you can then send out your second EDM that features lifestyle and shops around your project, let them imagine what it will be like to live in the area and enjoy all the benefits around their new dream home. You can make your project more desirable by sending out your third EDM, which emphasises the convenient transportation around the area, such as the nearby train/bus stations or the accessibility to Gold Coast or Sunshine Coast highways. Finally, send out EDM that talks about investment numbers such as annual growth or rental yield to further convince home buyers that purchasing your project is one of the smartest decisions they ever made.
Never underestimate these emails, as they have high open and click-through rates because home buyers are interested in your project and want to learn more about it.
Want to build your customer database and send out results-driven EDMs? Engage with an experienced digital property marketing agency like Desketing to help you with property marketing! Contact us today.
Keep up to date with our latest news
A solid marketing strategy is critical when attracting new customers, loyalty, and branding for any industry. The hospitality industry is no exception. Desketing knows it is important to keep up with the latest digital marketing trends to help drive results by using clever design and strategic marketing tactics so we've decided to give you some trends in hospitality marketing.
Trend 1 – Social Media
A top trend that you can find in hospitality marketing is the effective use of social media. When used efficiently social media can be a great tool to gain insight from consumers whilst also allowing you to target specific people. In recent research, it has been shown that 97% of millennials share travel pictures and videos on social media and that 89% plan travel activities based on the content shared (The Drum, 2018). It has been suggested that people are inspired by the opinions of others, with 70% of Americans say they look at reviews before making a purchase (The Drum, 2018). It is important that the hospitality industry uses this to their advantage. An example would be by sharing user-generated content, monitoring comments and hashtags and pinpointing locations through user check-ins. The information gathered can help gain insights on what customers want to see and the experience they want. This also creates brand awareness as well as connects the consumer to the content.
Trend 2 – Videos
If you haven't already guessed, content is key. Content must be relevant, interesting and relatable. In recent times, it has become apparent that photo content is decreasing and short video interactions are increasing, it has been estimated that 80% of internet traffic will be video content in 2019 (thatagency.com, 2018). This, however, is an amazing opportunity as videos can be an effective way to interact with customers whilst. 52% of marketers say video develop and push brand awareness (Campaignmonitor.com, 2018).
Trend 3 – SEO Driven
As technology is changing, so is the way that consumers are searching for things. It is important to have an appropriate approach to the content that is being released. A current trend is to include long tail keywords or phrases (3 or more words) in your SEO strategy (Net Affinity, 2018). This is a cost-effective way to direct quality traffic to your website. SEO should also have voice search capabilities where possible. Voice search is becoming popular with 40% of adults now using this feature at least once a day (Net Affinity, 2018).
Trend 4 – Mobile Is A Must
Having a mobile-friendly website is a must for any industry, not just the hospitality industry. With society always on the run, it is important to have information at your disposal whenever you need it. Research shows that mobiles contributed 94% of year on year growth in e-commerce traffic in 2017(thatagency.com, 2018). The hospitality industry has such a potential when it comes to mobile-friendly use. Some of these include booking online, check in and itinerary updates which could also be developed into a loyalty app.
Trend 5 – Websites
When in the Hospitality Industry, it is vital to have a strong website and booking systems available. Ideally, a website with a booking agent that is easy to navigate contains correct information and is regularly updated is essential. Direct traffic is a result of a working system, however, correct hospitality marketing and promotions must be completed to drive direct traffic to your website.
Trend 6 – Personalisation
Personalisation is a key trend found in hospitality marketing. Simple things such as Personalising emails or geo-targeting allowing the business to send relevant offers based on location can make a huge impact. Personalisation does not need to be obvious and can remain valuable even when the consumer is unaware of its presence (Econsultancy, 2018). It is important to remain true to your brand. There's nothing worse than blending in with the competition. Guests appreciate when a company is authentic and often this reels the guests in by the experiences you offer.

Social media is present in everyone's day to day life whether it be a personal account or a company's platform to communicate with their clients. The team here at Desketing would like to know is, are you using these platforms correctly? Do you understand how your posts reflect on your business?
The problem with social media is that everyone has it but not everybody knows how to use it effectively. These problems are common when little thought goes into the social media posts and can negatively impact the perception of your company's brand or confuse your customers.
Now you're probably thinking "wait, am I posting engaging content or am I communicating the wrong brand messages?" Don't worry! We have three hot tips to help create a successful social media post.
Tip #1 Keep your posts relevant to your branding and key messages!
One of the most important parts of having an online presence is to communicate effectively and create an appropriate image of your company. Branding is a vital part of your company and this should be present in every post uploaded. Posts online are an easy way of connecting with the target market and as a result, building your company image. Check out The Brilliant Brand Checklist to give you some tips on how to set the tone of creating a valuable and memorable brand.
Tip: If your company is 'young, fun and hip', then it's vital that you're using the same tone of language on your social media.
Tip #2 Plan your Social Media posts
Know exactly what you want to say, before typing away at your keys. Having a social media plan of what the company wants to communicate is always a must. It helps you stick to a relevant brand message, guides your branding and ensures that you're providing value to your social media followers.
Tip: Plan your Social Media Marketing plan, schedule posts before time and be prepared.
Tip #3 Treat all your Social Media Platforms Equally!
A mistake businesses often make is favoring one platform over another or having too many social media accounts. Choose a few social platforms that work best for your business and ensure that you're actively posting on each platform. Communicate in the same tone and manner to stand with your branding.
Tip: Know the target audience and keep the branding of your posts in sync overall social media platforms.
Good and Bad Social Media Examples
Below are some examples of how you can make a positive change on your Social Media Platforms.
What not to do:
Spam is not anyone's friend so when posting on social media you do not want to sound like a robot trying to sell something with every post.
What to do:
Break your content up, engage with the consumer rather than continuously send them advertisements. Example of this would be when an online shop re-posts a consumers photo when tagged by the consumer. This breaks up the advertisement, engages with the customer and allows the social media posts to become relatable.
What not to do:
Becoming an inactive account by not posting frequently. Your followers and consumers will eventually stop being interested and this will result in less page activity and customer engagement…
What to do:
Publish what is happening within the company. Get people involved and stay active in your accounts. Having an event? Promote it. Decided to dress up for Halloween? Tell everyone and post pictures. New products? Show sneak peaks! Get your consumers interested.

iOS 13.3 added an improvement to minimize junk messages you get, but it also made SMS two-factor authentication more annoying.
Robocalls and Scams are Killing Phone Calls
Sarah Hagi writes how the phone call is dying thanks to the rise of robocalling. Now, many people don't answer unknown callers and instead send them to voicemail.
Speaking to so many people, it struck me how resigned everyone was to this fact: that this is seemingly just the way things are now, with no hope of it getting better, only worse. And while many believe millennials killed talking on the phone because we fear real connection, maybe it's because we are too scared of getting scammed.
It's appropriate to come across this article today because I've gotten an increase in robocalls in the past couple of days. Aside from using a robocall-blocking app, I go to Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers.
An Inside Look Into a Recent Spam Operation
Millions of people were affected for 10 days in March by a spam email operation. But the spammer didn't set a password for their server (via TechCrunch). [Apple Support Scam is a new Voice Phishing Trick] Email Spam It's a fascinating story. Security researcher Bob Diachenko found the server after the operation. The spammer had…
FTC Shuts Down Four Robocall Groups
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has shut down four robocall groups responsible for billions of robocalls.
Four separate operations responsible for bombarding consumers nationwide with billions of unwanted and illegal robocalls pitching auto warranties, debt-relief services, home security systems, fake charities, and Google search results services have agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that they violated the FTC Act and the agency's Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR), including its Do Not Call (DNC) provisions.
I feel like this will be a hydra situation. Four get shut down and eight new ones take their place.
iOS: Enable Do Not Disturb to Block Spam Calls
iOS has a feature called Do Not Disturb that can help block spam calls and robocalls.
Hiya Says There Were 85B Robocalls Worldwide in 2018

If you're out in London town this evening, you may notice a blue beam of light shining into the sky. Well don't be alarmed, aliens aren't invading. Instead, the BT Tower has been transformed into the world's biggest lightsabre. Of course.
The light show started at 8.30pm, when the man who played C-3PO hit the switch at a swanky party in the restaurant at the top of the tower. It wasn't confirmed if he then got annoyed in a camp manner.
More than 60 lights each of 4,500w power, standing 1.3m tall and weighing 124kg combined to make the solid beam of light mimicking the trusted Jedi weapon. It's shining 200m into the air, so should be visible all across the capital. At least those eager beavers already queuing for the Sony tablets outside PC World a few streets away on Tottenham Court Road have got something to look at.
The BT Tower has undergone the transformation to celebrate the launch of all six Star Wars films on Blu-ray, which were released on Monday. The Star Wars: The Complete Saga boxset will set you back £60.
Anthony Daniels, the man inside the C-3PO suit, hit the switch. Earlier in the week, Darth Vader and a group of Stormtroopers marched through central London to try and intimidate those taking part in the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace. Or at least, people dressed as them did.
Will you be buying the boxset on Blu-ray? Let us know on our Facebook page.

Symbian released its web application development tools, making application development on the platform "as easy as creating a webpage." In other words, any web developer with a knowledge of HTML, CSS and some JavaScript can create mobile apps that run on Symbian smartphones, including the newly unveiled Nokia N8.
The good thing about these tools is that they allow accessing even some of the phone's deep device capabilities — including contacts, camera, sensors, location, etc. — with JavaScript (there are special APIs for accessing phone-specific features).
Of course, you don't need Symbian's tools to make web-based apps, but they argue it's easier to use what they got because of the features such as mobile-specific application previews, debugging and deployment capabilities.
At the end of the press release, Symbian says all these tools are out of beta, ready to be used by developers no matter which computer they use — Windows, Mac and Linux are all supported.

Someone got in touch with me this week to ask my advice on a financial matter. They wanted me to look at the case study of a graduate who is heavily in debt but can't stop spending and suggest some solutions. For obvious reasons, I won't be revealing much information on this as it would be unfair. But what struck me in particular, besides the difficulty of the situation, was that shopping as described as one of the person's 'hobbies'. He or she pursued this so-called 'hobby' both in stores on the high street and online. Sadly the individual had problems in controlling their internet spending and had managed to accumulate a mountain of unneeded items, such as clothes and DVDs, and the resultant unnecessary debt.
It was very sad to hear about a young person in so much financial difficulty – and especially when it was partly of their own making. We all know that life isn't easy for school leavers and graduates right now as there are so few jobs around. Plus so many people are leaving university up to their necks in debt already because of the introduction of tuition fees. So it's a crying shame that someone in this situation is making things even worse for themselves because of their uncontrollable spending.
It got me thinking. Has the fact that so many people are graduating now thousands of pounds in debt made owing money less of a stigma? Is it suddenly ok to have huge debts because everyone else you know does too? And when on earth did we get to the stage when shopping was considered a hobby in the same breath as dress-making, amateur dramatics or carpentry? If shopping really is considered to be a hobby nowadays then I think that's a tragedy.
Why is it that so many of us fill the void with meaningless stuff in this way? There was a time in my twenties, long before the days of this blog, when I used to hit the shops on Oxford Street in London regularly at the weekends. And even during the week, whenever I felt blue because I was unhappy with my lot, there was the temptation to go and splurge on something. Somehow treating myself to a nice new top or necklace make me feel better, although this feeling only lasted a couple of hours and was usually replaced by a sensation of panic at all the money I'd spent. At the time, my salary could sustain this occasional spending, but I couldn't afford to continue this negative behaviour under my current budget and way of living. Fortunately I no longer feel a need for it either.
Relationship break-ups can prove to be the most expensive of times, for women at least. Often in the past when friends have split up with someone, they've gone on a spending binge, going out with mates clubbing, buying new clothes, a new haircut, and the expense of it all is seen as almost part of the recovery phase.
We can blame it on advertising, on celebrity culture, the increased availability (at least until recently) of cheap credit, of course, and these things haven't helped. Perhaps we read too much about celebrities and honestly believe that we exist for no other purpose but to emulate their lifestyles, I don't know. I hope not. But I think it runs deeper than that.
There seems to be an innate need in some of us, when we feel vulnerable or unhappy, to comfort ourselves with shiny new things, whether it's clothes or power tools, and thinking that that is the answer. As long as the shopping sprees are only now and again and our budgets can withstand it, then it's fine. However, when spending starts to interfere with our ability to pay our bills and get by in life, there is an obvious problem. While I'm hardly a psychologist, I'd guess it's probably masking something else in our lives, whether that's boredom, loneliness or the need to find another satisfying activity or new job to fill our time.
If you ask me, shopping should never be described as a hobby. At best, it's a pastime, at worst, it can become an addiction. I hope that people are slowly beginning to realise there is more to life than spending their weekends queuing at a till and the rest of their lives paying off the debts.
Can shopping ever be described as a hobby? Why do some people feel the need to spend and spend? Have you ever been in that situation or known someone who can't control their spending? Leave a message and let me know.

ثَلَاْثَةُ الأُصُوْلِ وَأَدِلَّتُهَا
لِلْشَّيْخِ الْإِمَامِ الْمُجَدِّدِ مُحَمَّدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ
The 3 Fundamental Principles by Sheikh al-Imam, the Reviver, Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahab, may Allah have Mercy upon him.
The basis of this book are the 3 famous questions that every person is going to be asked in the grave.
مَنْ رَبُّكَ
Who is your Rabb?
مَا دِينُكَ
What is your Deen?
مَنْ نَبِيُّكَ
Who is your Nabi?
These questions have been formed into 3 principles in this book. Before beginning the main text of the book, Sheikh Ibn Abdul Wahab has placed 3 Muqaddimah's.
The Sheikh begins his book with "بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ". It is from the Sunnah of the Prophet that whenever he started a sermon, dictated or had a letter written, then he would initiate all such actions with Bismillah. A very famous letter which the Prophet sent to Hercules inviting him to Islam, begins with it. The treaty of Hudaibiyah begins with it as written by Ali. Following this all scholars of Islam begin their books with Bismillah.
اعْلمْ رَحِمَكَ اللهُ أَنَّهُ يَجِبُ عَلَيْنَا تَعَلُّمُ أَرْبَع مَسَائِلَ:
Have faith that Allah may have mercy upon you. It is obligatory upon all of us to learn about 4 matters:
This teaches us the manner in which should teach. It also shows us that we should make dua for the one we are advising or teaching as this is the Sunnah of the Prophet. We should use good words and manners so that it soften their hearts towards your message. The dua is because guidance is in the hands of Allah alone and all that we do is to just plant the seed.
Wajib are those things that are legislated/obligated upon a person by the Shariah to be done. Their completion in accordance to the guidelines brings rewards and not doing them incurs sin.
المسألة الأُولَى: الْعِلْمُ: وَهُوَ مَعْرِفَةُ اللهِ، وَمَعْرِفَةُ نَبِيِّهِ ـ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ـ، وَمَعْرِفَةُ دِينِ الإِسْلامِ بالأَدِلَّةِ.
The First Matter: Knowledge:
Knowledge of Allah's Existence
Knowledge of the Messenger
Knowledge of the Religion of Islam with its Evidences
العلم : إدراك الشيء على ما هو عليه إدراكاً جازماً لاشك فيه
Ilm (Knowledge) is to know something as per its true nature with utmost surety.
True knowledge is that which is based on the Quran and Sunnah. When it comes to Ilm, it should not be hear-say but rather it should be based on conviction. How much knowledge should a person gather? The Sheikh stipulates the minimum knowledge which a Muslim needs to attain: knowledge of Allah, His Messenger and His Deen with its respective evidences.
Why does a person need this? Allah tells us in the Quran:
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me. [Surah adh-Dhariyat, Ayah 56]
This shows that, one clearly cannot worship Allah as He deserves unless we have knowledge regarding Him. Anyone who qualifies as being called a human being, then it is obligatory upon them to learn about their Creator. The knowledge of the Messenger is very important because one cannot have or learn about the knowledge of Allah without His Messenger. As for the knowledge of the Deen, Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal beautifully remarked as quoted by al-Hafidh Ibn al-Qayyim:
الناس محتاجون إلى العلم أكثر من حاجتهم إلى الطعام والشراب لأن الطعام والشراب يحتاج إليه في اليوم مرة أو مرتين، والعلم يحتاج إليه بعدد الأنفاس
"People are more in need of knowledge than food and drink because they only need food and drink once or twice a day – but they need knowledge with every breath they take…" [Dar Miftah al-Sa`ada]
It is reported from Abdullah bin Ahmad bin Hanbal that he asked his father, whether it is obligatory upon a man to seek knowledge. He replied: "As for [the knowledge] through which he can uphold his prayers, and other matters of his religion like fasting, Zakah – and he mentioned the other main aspects of the religion – then a man must know about that."
All that a person is obligated to do, he must seek the knowledge related to that and it is obligatory upon him to do so. Ex: Learning about the 2 testimonies of faith, salah, fasting etc. Not doing so is incurring a sin. With the same understanding all that which is recommended to do, then gaining knowledge of that is also recommended etc.
All this knowledge is that which is based on evidences from the Quran and Sunnah. Only with evidences can we differentiate between that which is right and wrong. Certainty in a matter cannot be attained without it being based on evidences.
المسألة الثَّانِيَةُ: الْعَمَلُ بِهِ
Second Matter: To Implement what we have Learnt
Ilm (knowledge) and Amal (action) have a very deep connection. All we need is, to ponder on the last ayat of Surah al-Fatiha to realize their importance and significance.
اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ
Guide us to the straight path,
The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray. [Surah al-Fatiha, Ayat 6-7]
We ask Allah to save us from the path of 2 people, one who had knowledge and didn't apply what they learnt (Jews), and the other, who did things without knowledge as per their desires (Christians). Point of reflection here is to find out what caused the Anger of Allah to descend upon the Jews and how the Christians were misguided. This shows us the deep relation between Ilm and Amal. The Jews got the revelation from Allah through numerous Prophets and Messengers, but they hid it, changed it or killed the Messenger who brought them or sold it as mentioned in many places in the Quran. They had the knowledge but did not act upon it and this brought the Anger of Allah upon them. The Christians were the opposite, who acted upon that which they did not have authentic knowledge of.
Fudayl Ibn Iyad famously said, "The scholar remains ignorant until he acts upon his Knowledge. Only when he acts upon that Knowledge which he has gained, is he a scholar."
المسألة الثَّالِثَةُ: الدَّعْوَةُ إِلَيْهِ
Third Matter: Calling to it.
To call people to that which we have learnt from authentic sources and put into practice. This is a duty upon every Muslim. To think that what another Muslim does, has no bearing on ones own self is a very dangerous train of thought. Rather to propagate this message is the work of the Prophets and Messengers of Allah.
المسألة الرَّابِعَةُ: الصَّبْرُ عَلَى الأَذَى فِيهِ
First: Knowledge, which means: awareness of Allah, His Prophet, Religion of Islam, based on evidences.
Second: Acting on this.
Third: Calling to it.
Fourth: Patience with the harm that befalls due to it.
وَالدَّلِيلُ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم: "وَالْعَصْرِ
إِنَّ الإِنسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ
إِلاَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ"
[سورة العصر كاملة]
The proof for this is Allah's saying: "In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy.
By the time!
Verily mankind is at loss – except for those who believe and perform righteous deeds, and advise one another towards the truth and advise one another towards patience." [Surah Al-Asr]
Allah starts of this Surah by swearing an oath by time. This goes to show the importance of that which is to follow. The ال in الإِنسَانَ denotes that all of mankind is in loss. The exception to it are those who believe, perform righteous deeds, advise one another and advise to be patient.
A point to note is that Ilm is not directly mentioned here. Here having Iman is the equivalent of having Ilm. Wherever in the Quran and Sunnah we are obligated to seek knowledge, then that is followed by having faith and implementing that knowledge too. Merely knowing about the matter is not enough.
Iman entails I'tiqad, Qawl and Amal
How do we know that doing these 4 things is obligatory? Because Allah says those who do not do these actions are those who are in loss meaning that they are destroyed. It is an obligation upon all of us to save ourselves and others from all such harms and evil endings.
قَالَ الشَّافِعيُّ ـ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى – : لَوْ مَا أَنْزَلَ اللهُ حُجَّةً عَلَى خَلْقِهِ إِلا هَذِهِ السُّورَةَ لَكَفَتْهُمْ
وَقَالَ البُخَارِيُّ ـ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى ـ : بَابُ: العِلْمُ قَبْلَ القَوْلِ وَالْعَمَلِ؛ وَالدَّلِيلُ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: ( فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لاَ اله إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنبِكَ )[محمد:19]، فَبَدَأَ بِالْعِلْمِ (قَبْلَ القَوْلِ وَالعَمَلِ
Imam Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "Had Allah not sent down a proof to His creation other than this Surah, it would have been sufficient for them."
Imam al-Bukhari, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "Chapter: Knowledge comes before speech and action." The proof for this is Allah's saying: "So know that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and seek forgiveness for your sins." [Surah Muhammad, Ayah 19]
So He began by mentioning knowledge before speech and action.
May Allah grant us the tawfique to understand and the tawfique to implement that which we have learnt. May Allah help rectify our beliefs and grant us with the blessing to seek beneficial knowledge. May peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family, his companions, and those who follow him.
