Continue Reading3 Things I learned at Think on Your Feet
As you know here at Bluewire Media each team member is devoted to communication that is timely, appropriate and understandable. To help ensure that my communication is understandable I recently participated in a course called Think on Your Feet®.

In this blog post I will touch on how Think on Your Feet gave me the tools to be understood, direct and persuasive.…
Continue ReadingSocial Media is to Blame!
This morning shocking footage was broadcast into my cereal bowl as Channel Nine’s Today Show reported a school yard bullying incident in Melbourne [click to view video].

Do your consumers want to divorce your advertiser?
It’s now pretty well known that consumers today don’t want to be told want they need by the advertiser. Consumers are divorcing their advertiser and turning and blind eye to the billboards, web banners, TV commercials & radio ads.
This little video was shown at one of our Web Strategy workshops to a business who for the past 20+ years had spent millions on traditional advertising. They started to notice that their consumers were not responding like they used to. Their consumers were divorcing their advertising efforts.…

Hello blogosphere! I’m Shanon, the newest member of the Bluewire team. I’m currently saying goodbye to my 4th week (3 weeks if you don’t count my first week which was interrupted by #qldflood) with Bluewire and hello to what looks like an exciting career with a driven, passionate and enthusiastic team.
The Bluewire door was opened by good friend, fellow uni class mate, business partner and now professional colleague, Angus Russell. Angus introduced me to Adam and Angela late last year where I came in and shared with them a little about me and my passion for the web.…
