Barry Watson (ClubSocialJunction)

Educated at the Royal Hospital at Holbrook and then on to St.Paul's College in Cheltenham .After leaving college found teaching far too dull so became a Bus Driver in Cheltenham for a few years .

A stint as a Social worker in Chepstow followed.

Once again the itchy feet got the better of me and I spent a number of years driving hippies to Kathmandu and back.

Have run numerous companies over the years - the main one being a financial services company.

Run a Charity in India called "HelptheVillage" . Spend two months a year building a village for Yanadi tribesmen.

Married to Shirley, we have four brilliant children of whom I am immensely proud.

Have found my niche in life with Social Media .

The University is a place for people to learn how to set up or improve a social media marketing campaign for themselves or their business. We focus on the ‘big four’ Social Media platforms: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube. Club Social Junction will also help you to use some of the smaller platforms.

Club Social Junction will also teach you how to use the tools that are the most effective for measuring how well your campaign is working!

University Classrooms:

The University offers members the chance to learn either step-by-step or in an exploratory manner across a range of social media platforms and social media metrics. Members can learn at their own pace and can come back to lessons at any time. Also, they can bookmark and share useful articles with their peers, allowing for cohesive learning.

The University is run by a curator who is constantly updating and adding objects to each classroom! If any of the smaller social media platforms become mainstream, then we will create a classroom to help members add that platform into their social media campaign.

The Club Social Junction Library has one of the world’s biggest collections of curated social media content online in one place.

Barry Watson
Managing Director

About Barry: Barry has 20 years’ experience in the world of business and has run a number of companies in the past. When he came across social media three years ago, he found that social media was a very time consuming subject to learn for yourself.

He realised that even though the information is out there on the internet, finding all the useful articles and resources meant that you had to read through hundreds of articles.

Barry believed that if people were going to learn social media effectively, there had to be a resource where people could learn at their own pace and have all the information on a plate in front of them.
