How to use Twitter to destroy your professional reputation

Living in Nottinghamshire and being in public relations I could not help watching the recent Channel 4 series, Coppers. I was keen to see how the programme portrayed our local police force and how the public reacted to it as well.

As you would expect Twitter was awash with comments and the hash tag #coppers had a strong following. It was here that I came across a comment from a Virtual PA who has a profile that reads "VirtualPA, marketing exec, HR manager." Now I know people tend to add their disclaimers about views being their own (which this lady did not) but at what point, as viewers, are we really expected to separate our take on her comments from her as a promoter of her professional services on Twitter? I would argue it's not possible, although as you will see later, she clearly disagrees with me.

I shan't name the person but for the sake of this blog I'll call her Miss V. Judging from her tweets Miss V is very supportive of the police and has little time for people that cause them problems. So much so that she asked "why are they allowed to breed?" This was the comment that brought about our twitter conversation. My response to her question being that they are "allowed to breed" thanks to the freedoms on which this country is built.

If you are looking to make strong and profitable business relationships with business owners and managers in the East Midlands and South Yorkshire then the Tuesday Club is the place to be. We have over 130 members travelling from across three counties to attend our networking meetings.

February's meeting takes us to Brasserie 19 at West Nottinghamshire College in Mansfield. It is the College's restaurant that aims to provide a distinctive dining experience. We will be looked after by the catering and hospitality students on the evening and are promised an excellent three course meal that will have to be pre-ordered by members and guests attending.

The bar will be open from 6.00pm onwards and there is plenty of comfortable space for networking.

The Tuesday Club is a unique venture sponsored by Parker PR and the Chad newspaper. It brings together business owners and managers from Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire to meet and talk about business matters. We network, build relationships and look for opportunities where we can win new business.

All this takes place over a fabulous meal, as the Tuesday Club meets in a different restaurant each month. There is no direct selling, no pitching from speakers and no stiff formality - we simply meet, talk, enjoy the relaxed networking atmosphere and find new business partners and customers. To book your place please complete the booking form below. Further information will be sent nearer the date of the meeting once your booking has been confirmed. Please note that late cancellations and no-shows will incur a full cost charge to cover administration.
