Have you applied for your Growth Voucher worth up to £2000?

The Growth Voucher scheme was set up by the government last year, which gives businesses the opportunity to receive up to £2000 match funding with the aim of helping SMEs get strategic business advice and support to help them grow.
However, following an extension at the start of this year, the scheme is now drawing to a close, with an application deadline date of 31st March.

If you would like to find out if your business is eligible to receive up to £2,000 match funding to put towards strategic advice, head to the Growth Vouchers page to complete your application.

Successful applicants will have until 30th June to find an advisor and process the claim.

#MarketingTitbits – Facebook, Vine, YouTube

Facebook-Vine-YouTube-smaller1. This is what happens on Facebook when you die
You may have never wondered what happens to your social media profiles when you die. It is not something most people would think about. However, different social media channels treat death in different ways. Until recently, Facebook has chosen to restrict a person’s privacy settings to just friends once they have died; however this has now changed.

Now, when a person dies, their Facebook privacy settings stay the same, they say they “are respecting the choices a person made in life while giving their extended community of family and friends ongoing visibility to the same content they could always see.”

Facebook have also added an extra touch for friends and family. If you are a Facebook user you will know that recently you have been able to access your “Look back” video, showing you your life on Facebook. After a father’s plea on YouTube to be able to see his deceased son’s “Look back” video, users can now request to see their friend’s videos upon request after they die.
