Dear all,

We are planning to start a facebook group and twitter account for Wigan Heritage Service. I was hoping some of you may have experiences and tips you would be willing to share. For example do you have a social media strategy/policy? How do you respond to negative comments? What types of things do you find work well as tweets and posts?

I've been following quite a few museums on both facebook and twitter so I'm getting a good idea of the types of things that museums post. My main concerns are to make sure we have a strategy and management plan.

Any help as always would be gratefully received.

Many thanks,

Jenny
