HIT Scotland #EmergingTalent Conference

A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to be able to attend the HIT Scotland Emerging Talent at the lovely Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow. It was a really inspiring day with a host of fantastic speakers. I was ALSO lucky enough to be awarded one of the HIT Scholarships - with a specialism in Social Media. I'll find out more about what it entails in the next couple of weeks and I'm really looking forward to finding our more about it. I already have a lots of experience using social media as a community and marketing tool, but as the landscape is always changing I'd like to learn about all of the latest developments from the experts and learn how to use them in my day to day job at New Lanark - and as the (no official title) marketing / social media / promo person for Lanark Amateur Musical Society which I do in my spare time as well as dancing about on stage. 

Below I'm going to share some of the most inspirational quotes I heard from the speakers during the day...

David Cochrane - HIT Scotland Chief Executive "One thing you can't take away from Scottish tourism is the people"





Fraser Doherty MBE "A good idea doesn't have to reinvent the wheel"



Helen Vass "If you don't ask you don't get"



Rojan Kumar "If you don't try you'll never know"



Bill McFarlane "what we think about, we bring about"



Bruce Walker "Who made the rules and what are they? Why not break them?"


My certificate - yay!



Thanks for reading! I'll br writing another blog once I've completed my Social Media HIT Schoralship so you'll find out what it's all about.
