I’m sceptical about this role. Why do you ask? Well, let me tell you.... (Thread 1/12) labour.org.uk/current-vacanc… First - It's good the Party want more audience insight. But social media is a subset of an audience and we should be investing in more polling and focus groups than expensive tools which aren’t that great at political audience insight.

US election time means lots of fun geeking out looking at A/B tests running on websites. And here are some fun things that a little bit of digging have found. Joebiden.com is running @optimizley and there are a couple of tests running right now... 1/4 The Lightbox popup on the website seems to be a focus of tests at the moment. Makes sense($$$). Testing starting amounts between $25 vs $15. This test has just ended. And in new tests it looks like they've settled on $15. Found a winner... 2/4 ImageImage
