The Early Bird - Bioempathy

 Self Made Series +throughMylens 

#SelfMade

Be like a bird +throughMylens #BioEmpathy #BioMimicry

📍 The early bird catches the worm.  🐦

Yesterday, a bird landed near where I was sitting next to the large dust bin.  I remained silently, curiously watching what the bird would do next, asking myself several questions, such as, "Will the bird be afraid of my presence?" And many more thoughts followed.







#POV and Quotes 

~ "The bird never plans for its next meal, yet it knows where, how, what, and when to look for it." - Wilson Masaka, Youth Advocate a s Social Entrepreneur.

~ "The bird that landed on the weak branch was not afraid to fall since it relied on its wings to fly." - Wilson Masaka, Youth Advocate a s Social Entrepreneur.

~ "God gives every bird his worm, but He does not throw it into the nest. - P. D. James

~ "It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad. - C. S. Lewis

I have never encountered someone who doesn't have a story; we all have one, but how, when, what, where, who, and why we tell it varies and presents a barrier for many.

Book me for a skill-up master class, and storytelling will be one of the sessions.

Social Media 101 - Grassroots Football

 #ContentCreation

Does your football team have a social media presence? 

I follow a variety of football clubs, from grassroots to top tier, and to be honest, there is still a significant gap in participation, content development, and overall strategy for how to use socal media platforms successfully and efficiently.

On the flip side there are club that have mastered  the craft and it is always interesting to follow, like, comment and share their content.

One of the most difficult tasks for any social media administrator is providing consistent and original content.  It's amusing to me when a football team just posts future fixtures and only posts when they win.  


Take notice that in football, there are three possible outcomes: draw, win, and lose.  Don't be afraid to post about your loss; it is what it is.  


Here is a list you can consider when you run out of ideas for content to post on your football club social media pages. +throughMylens @Wilson Masaka





1. The current fixture and the next three games to come.

2. League standings.

3. Match statistics.

4. Players match stats.

5. Team and players Bio or profile.

5. Transfers news

6. New signings.

7. Brand identity (philosophy, team song etc)

7. Throwbacks, down the memory lane.

8. Coach and team vision (quotes)

9. Game posters before and after.

10. External meaning content; Follow, comment and share 

11. Short documentary 

12. Match highlights shots (videos).

12. Pre and post match 

13. The fanbase acknowledgement, vox pops, POV etc.

14. Pro football - be bold to condemn the bad and praise the good.

15. Featured player - Player of The Match

16. Pictorials from Warm ups, line up, squad etc.

17. Congratulate and acknowledge other clubs for great performance or achievement even though it depends with other factors.  

18. Call ups to the national teams. 

19. Players and team management welfare.

20. Live streaming 

Etc.
