Be a participant, not a spectator
Sometimes these discussions are sparked on the assets and accounts you own, other times you might be the topic of conversation on platforms owned by others.
Either way, you need a social media strategy to ensure you are more than just a spectator. You need to be an active participant, with a plan that has KPI’s and clear prospects for success.

Fifteen years of health social media
Palin Communications has been supporting health-related companies with their social media strategies for over 15 years. What started out as lifestyle focused platforms have evolved and we’ve been part of that change, helping clients maintain leading presences that set the standard and bench mark across the industry.
We hear a lot from our clients about the risks associated with social media engagement. But in the current environment, the risks of not being involved and getting left behind are far greater.
Australian healthcare companies have now, in large part, overcome their early reticence about social media. Their questions have shifted from ‘is this worth investing in?’ to ‘how can we use social media to highlight our company aspirates, mitigate issues and highlight our unique culture to support recruitment efforts?’

We also helped LivaNova in Australia build their social media strategy from the ground up.
