If you or someone you know needs help getting going with Twitter & Social Media then come along to Exeter Tweet Shop.

For one day only on Thursday 24th March from 10am to 8pm you can drop into McCoy's Arcade, Fore Street and get FREE advice of how to set up your Twitter account and get started with Social Media.

Manned by experts you can have a friendly chat about how to get started and what to do next. The Exeter Tweet Shop is free but if you would like to make a donation to Exeter Leukaemia Fund then that would be great.

Tell you friends and businesses to come along and sign up to the power of Social Media.

Yep, you read it right! As part of Exeter Twestival 2011 we're holding an Indoor Village Fete down in McCoys Arcade on Fore Street!

Come and join in the fun, there will be fete stalls with all prizes donated from the overwhelming support of local independent shops and traders, as well as live music and entertainment, a bottle bar, tea and cakes, a live drawing event, and a raffle - because no fete would be complete without one!

The entire event is in aid of Exeter Leukaemia Fund and every penny raised will go towards helping these guys to continue to do what they do, and have done for 20 years!

Whether you want to Splat the Rat, test your skills on the Hoopla, or simply feast on Cake and hang around the Bar - it's alll here for one evening only, and it's a perfect chance to come and find out what an abundance of amazing independent shops that Exeter has to offer!
See you there :)

Please help us to spread the word, call it your good deed for the day - besides your friends will thank you for such a find! 

Huge thanks to Tom Cross for volunteering to make such a great poster! 

As part of The Exeter Twesival Indoor Village Fete at McCoys Arcade, artists from the No Guts No Glory shop will be drawing live artworks in-store.  The works will be auctioned at the end of the evening, with 100% going to Exeter Leukemia Fund.

Philip Harris is a Dip Pen and Ink illustrator, with a love for Victorian and Edwardian etchings. His works can usually take anything up to a week to complete due to his traditional technique - it's going to be great to see how he adapts for producing a huge piece in just 3 hours!

Lauren Gow is a local Fine Art Tattooist.  Her days are spent drawing up custom artworks for a wide range of clients.  From the small and detailed, to the full sleeves, but never with a whole bunch of onlookers watching her every move! 

There is no room for mistakes here!

Come on down and help us to raise money for Exeter Leukemia Fund, visit some of the Fete Stalls - all of which will be full of prizes donated by Exeter's abundance of independent shops and traders!

Here's the first of our events on Thursday 24th March and its for the businesses of Exeter...

ExeTwest - Twitter for Business - Seminar

2pm to 5pm - Mill on the Exe, Exeter.

If you want to learn how Twitter can make a huge difference to the success of your business then this event is for you at an incredible price of £30 (at least half of what you would expect to pay) and 100% the Ticket price goes straight to ELF.

Social Media is not a Fad - Ann Holman
"The traditional differentiators that business had five years ago are being
lost everyday. Products and services are too similar. Price, quality and
delivery are the same. Social media is having a huge impact on how we
communicate, converse and connect with customers. This short keynote
speech looks at how social media is enabling specifically four huge
shifts; product to people, broadcast to social, transaction to
relationship, service to experience. Delegates will gain an overview on
how Twitter is creating true relationships in a people to people
environment."

Twitter Tools, Tips & Techniques - Chris Wood
"Ideal for those struggling on how to use Twitter for business or looking
for top tips on how to make better use of it for their business. For
example using social media client applications like Hootsuite (can be a
great time saver tool), how to reach out to a wider audience with the
keywords and #tags you use, how to grow your following to a niche market,
how to identify new business opportunities and other great top tips. These
are not to be missed if you want to become serious about using Twitter for
business."

Q&A - Networking - plus the opportunity for 10 businesses to bring a pop up banner and advertising material (for an additional £10)
