📷Quality content
61% of audiences feel better about an organisation that make customised content (source: Content Council). Content includes social media updates, blog posts, website pages, video, live streams, newsletters, printed resources, ads, webinars, photos, slides, gifs and press releases etc.
🖼️ Keep to the Léargas branding guidelines
We have a consistent Léargas brand and identity across all sectors throughout our online content, printed resources and all of our merchandise. All of the sectors within Erasmus+ are colour coded and have their own icons and strap lines (mottos) for audiences to easily identify each sector.
👏 User Generated Content
There is nothing more powerful than a personal story. If you are working on a project, encourage individuals and groups to share their images and always tag Léargas on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. If you feel there is someone that could be considered an influencer, let us know and we can talk to them about sharing their story through a blog post or a video. Or, simply ask them to spread the word within their own online community through social media or just by sharing some materials in their canteen or staff room.
