Social Media and The Ministry of Sound
Ben Stroud is currently responsible for all Ministry of Sound's social media. In just a couple of months he took the club's Twitter followers from 1,000 to 18,000
and there are similar stories for Ministry's Facebook and MySpace pages.
Ben sees social media as an integral part of an overall marketing strategy and we're 
excited that he's on board to deliver a masterclass and Q&A's on a much under-used element of marketing.
Ben will walk through the Ministry of Sound's history, their recent brand diversification and reveal the tools and methods he has used to increase the super club's online presence.
