Step-by-Step Workbook Makes It Easy to Write Your Social Media Policies
immediate future Launches a Step by Step Guide to Creating a Social Media Policy to Protect Company Reputations
(firmenpresse) - LONDON -- (Marketwired) -- 07/18/13 -- Based on nine years' experience in social media, today launches the social media policy workbook. The first of its kind, the workbook avoids the fluff and social media rhetoric. Instead it gives brands step-by-step guidance on creating a policy that protects company reputations, safeguards employees and complies with the law.

In a research study earlier this year on , it was clear that many companies didn't have a comprehensive social policy in place; in fact 19% didn't have one at all. Whether companies find themselves in the throes of crisis or in a tangle of tribunals, social media can present a risk to business. A risk much mitigated by having a solid social media policy in place.
"Social media is leaky. It's everywhere!" says Katy Howell, CEO at immediate future. "Everyone is connected. Not just your marketing department. But your employees, your shareholders, your suppliers and partners too. Unfortunately not everyone is aware of the damage they can do to your company reputation. Now is the time to get good social media governance in place. And that starts with a robust social media policy."
The workbook goes beyond being a social media policy template. It has been designed to help companies create bespoke policies that plug the vulnerabilities and set the frameworks that are relevant to the organisation.
Katy adds: "The social media policy workbook is structured to help marketers, HRs and operations professionals include all the essentials in their social media policies. With hints, tips and a little humour the workbook makes creating the policy a little entertaining too -- well as entertaining as you can make policy writing!"
