Hi Guys,

This is the time when Hindu community starts their celebrations towards the festival of lights and in Johannesburg Spring Walks is the talk of the season which converts to Jacaranda takes the center stage in October.
1. Escape to Planet rAge - The Awesome Gaming Expo 07 to 09 October 2016 @rAgeExpo @TicketProDome - http://www.thelifesway.com/2016/09/escape-to-planet-rage-awesome-gaming.html - rAge has been one of my favourite events and this was my 3rd year at the show and this time I went with my family. The show was fully packed and there was no space to walk too. I really missed the CNA shop but there has been some new brands to showcase their latest gaming technology. Again this year rAge expo will celebrate it's 15th anniversary and it's going to be even bigger and better. I am looking forward to this year's event.
2. Sometimes you do a lot of stuff for several brands but receive nothing in return, so is the case with Huawei. I have always tried to win their sponsorship to get one of the best product either Mate series or the P series smartphone but it never happened till now. The number of posts I have done for them is much more than their most of the sponsored media and celebrities also but still nothing in return. These are all the posts in a single month of September 2016 for the brands leading to hundreds of tweets, retweets and other social media sharings.
3. Acer Africa too launched several products this year as well as in IFA 2016 and send me various press releases to share on my channels. This year they launched their online shop and you can buy some of their products at some amazing deal prices at shopacer.co.za
This brand also feels that my social media influence is not that much but never received the data from their end as to how much it is? Sometimes, it makes me think to close down The Life's Way social media channels but then I see a lot of unfinished tasks at my hands that I can't close this business in such adversaries.
4. Lenovo in all my engagements till now, I have only received one 4gb pendrive that too at one smartphone launch and nothing else. I don't know what to say about the same but here are some posts which I did for them in Sep 2016.
5. A Memoir - This Month Last Year - Sep 2015 www.thelifesway.com #TheLifesWay - http://www.thelifesway.com/2016/11/a-memoir-this-month-last-year-sep-2015.html - My favorite stories from last years September and connecting the dots during those times.
Spring Cleaning can be applied to all parts of your life if I think about it, it can be used to clean all those brands and PR companies where you are getting nothing in kind or favour. As social media is all about give and take and If I am not getting benefits out of the brand, I won't invest my time and efforts into that brand. It can also be applied to all your old stuff which you haven't used in the last year. It's just that we are attached to so many things and always think that it might be handy sometime or someday but that time never comes and we are caught in that vicious circle all the time.
Cheers!!!
