MARKETING TEAM UPDATE LINKEDIN TRAINING AND GETTING TRACTION ON YOUR INTERACTIONS

Did you see Sian’s email the other week about LinkedIn moving all of their training online via their LinkedIn Learning Centre? This can be accessed here. We thought it would be and ideal opportunity to give you a couple of handy LinkedIn tips for you to try: • Have you ever sent a voice note through InMail? It’s a nice way to stand out from the crowd. Just a 10 second note will almost always be listened to. Perhaps try it next time someone has connected with you. • Don’t just broadcast (share/ like), comment! It’s a more personal way to engage with potential candidates / clients and will make them more likely to subsequently engage. • Share your opinions. Share something you discussed on a call with a client/candidate e.g. ‘I was just on the phone, and we were discussing xxx. What do you think?’. Asking an open question is a significantly more appealing way for people to respond to you. And it’s been a great first month for Emily Harris, who has been settling in well with the Marketing team and the wider business. Emily should be your first point of call for all Marketing request aside from purely design requests, which should go to Eliane.

MEETING ROOM BOOKING & DAILY DESK CREDIT USAGE

For new staff and a reminder to all - MRG are allocated a small amount of credits for meeting rooms each month as part of our contract with WeWork. This month we have already exceeded our allocation and any additional credits cost £20 each (please bear in mind that an av- erage small meeting room for an hour is approx. 3 credits = £60). To ensure we keep within our month- ly credit allowance and avoid additional charges, please can you: • Use a meeting room only when Wework

common space does not suffice. • For example, your meeting requires a confidential space, or you need to use display screens to present informa- tion. • Always use the smallest meeting room capacity that you can (bigger rooms cost more credits). • Use Daily Desk credits in other We- work buildings only when necessary. • For example, you are at client meet- ings in a location that is too far away from 15 Bishopsgate to be able to use the MRG office as a base.

BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT GROUP UPDATE • Continued work on Bullhorn and website improvements are on- going. • Training session on Terms of Business to take place in Novem- ber with KB – 30.11.22 at 11am – please see People update for more information. • There will be training on ad writing to be done in the coming months. • Compliance rate continues to be much improved, aided by the weekly meetings and use of TrustID/WeSign. • BIG to roll out training on using our Microsoft products effec- tively.
