Want to develop a social media presence or launch a new account for your organisation or project?
For our December event, we’ll be hearing from Dr Kristin Leith FSAScot, Senior Curator of Clocktime, a new digital museum which enables a worldwide audience to discover how British clockmakers changed our world. Kristin’s team launched the social media accounts for Clocktime in early 2024 and have been steadily growing their follower and engagement numbers ever since.
In addition to a whistlestop tour of the digital museum, Kristin will talk about what platforms they chose and why, how they’ve been sharing and adapting website content for social media on different platforms, and what communities/target audiences they decided to cultivate as followers. She’ll also cover how they grew their follower numbers from zero, what they chose to track and report on, and key takeaways (including what worked well, and what they’d do differently going forward).
This online event will conclude with a Q&A session.
WHEN: Tue, 3 Dec 2024 14:00 – 15:00 GMT
WHERE: Online via Zoom
COST: Free
TICKETS: Eventbrite

SPECIAL THANKS
Thanks to our fantastic sponsor, we’re able to offer payment to all SHSMG speakers while keeping these events free for attendees:
“Whereverly create cultural and heritage tourism apps and websites.
We want tourists and locals to embrace local culture and heritage through music, song and stories, whilst discovering the hidden gems.
The Whereverly app and web platform makes creating a helpful tourism app easy. The content on Whereverly apps is produced for the most part by local communities, guides, heritage professionals, park rangers and local storytellers.
The Whereverly apps and website feature interactive maps, 3D maps, AR experiences, points of interests, favouriting and list building. As well as audio and non-audio walking, cycling, driving and rail tours. As well as music and stories delivered based on where the visitor is.
Example of our apps are Falkirk Explored, the North Coast 500, Scotland Starts Here, Explore Stirling, Highland Discovery and the Coig. We have developed supporting websites re-using the app content for the Coig and Scotland Starts Here. We are working on new heritage focussed projects which feature AR models, badge collecting and 3D maps.”
