FM branding, your way
I’m trying to make myself be perceived as an
expert so anyone involved in FM would
naturally go to me and look at my business,”.
“I’m very consciously using this as a business
tool.” (Iain Murray)
(FM World, June 2010)

FM news you want to see
“It provides access in real time to constant updates about topical issues, whether from suppliers, consultants or contractors, about everything from paper towels to building infrastructure engineering,”
“Any FM who is tapped into the right network of suppliers and consultants will have regular responses to any queries they may have.” (Adrian McNeece, founder of workplace advisory firm McNeece Consulting)
(FM World, June 2010)

“You could see relationships being established during the Th!nkFM conference which otherwise wouldn’t have happened,” says Neil Usher, general manager of group property at Rio Tinto.

Future of FM + social media
“There needs to be a rethink in organisations
about the benefits of increasing their
communication with the outside world, whether
it’s clients or suppliers, and developing policies
around that.” (Adrian McNeece)
(FM World, June 2010)
