[Matt Simpson @Matt__Simpson]

Today I'm at @KingsmeadAc School working with Years 7, 8 & 9 students for @BIMA #DigitalDay23

The students are working on a brief from Vue as a way of getting hands on experience of digital.

There's a big skills shortage in our sector so days like today are important.

Our latest report is out, focusing on Conversion Rate Optimisation strategies and including insights from senior marketing leaders across sectors.

In season one we talk to club insiders about:
• The Leyton Orient reality TV show filmed in Albania
• The Italian international who got arrested for stealing honey from Harrods
• The CEO's idea to get rid of the club shop, all hospitality and the need for an away kit

So in lockdown me and a fellow Leyton Orient fan decided to make a podcast series about the time our club was almost put out of existence by a sociopathic Italian billionaire. It's taken a while, but it's about to come out.

Here's the trailer:

We interviewed club insiders about things like:

• The time he imprisoned the whole squad in a hotel for a week following a defeat
• The time he assaulted the assistant manager on the pitch
• The ill-fated reality TV show filmed in Albania and broadcast in Italy

Here's me talking about the latest trends in streaming platforms...

[Matt Simpson @Matt__Simpson]

Great work by the @CandyspaceLtd team and @vodprofessional on this new report into the top streaming platforms in the UK. It also includes me referencing C90 cassettes and Betamax video, but don't let that stop you reading it...

[Matt Simpson @Matt__Simpson]

I find it a curious anomaly in this age of information overload that it's nearly impossible to ever find out the band stage times in advance of a gig.

[Matt Simpson @Matt__Simpson]

Had the pleasure of taking part in @BIMADDay @BIMA #DigitalDay2022 in which @CandyspaceLtd helped students at Kingsmead School in Enfield answer digital briefs from Royal and Primark.

The students were so impressive – our digital future is in safe hands! 🙏
