Tuğçe Bıçakçı-Syed, one of our ReTyped Editors, explores what it’s like to work in publishing after a career break or career change. Foreign nationals often face challenges in the UK publishing industry, with employers being wary of foreign qualifications and experience. This can lead to skilled professionals having to start in entry-level roles despite having successful careers in their home countries. Tuğçe discusses these challenges and offers advice on how to leverage transferable skills, unique experiences, and perspectives to enter the publishing industry as a career changer or after a career break. https://lnkd.in/em2GsGx5 #workinpublishing #careerchangers #foreignnationals

A fantastic client win for Little Tiger on a series of TikTok influencer campaigns. 🎉 #BookMarketing #Publishing
🙌 The Little Tiger marketing team brought us on board to curate and manage a total of four successful TikTok influencer campaigns across key calendar events – including Pride, Halloween and Mother's Day. Here's how we did it. 👀 As part of the campaigns, the BookMachine Creative Agency team sourced and collaborated with a total of 28 influencers to create inspiring, bookish content around key calendar events, including Pride, Halloween and Mother's Day – followed by the running of targeted Spark ads with the best-performing videos. The strong number of accounts who engaged with the content (10,523 across a total of four campaigns) indicates just how much Little Tiger’s books resonate with the campaign's target audience of parents and primary caregivers of young children, which was fantastic to see! Dive into the full success story to find out more about our tried-and-tested approach to successful influencer marketing campaigns for children's titles: https://buff.ly/4duAzzR #TikTok #InfluencerMarketing #DigitalMarketing #DigitalMarketingAgency #SocialMediaMarketing #ChildrensBooks #PrideBooks #ChildrensPublishing #Publishing #PublishingIndustry
