Talk.build, a new social media network, developed exclusively for the UK construction industry, was officially launched today Thursday December 4th. It will be totally free to use for anyone involved in the building business and offers a massive range of functions and benefits for both individual users and companies.
The new network, launched by TTK, the special projects division of CFA, one of Britain’s leading construction based marketing organisations, fills a major gap in the social media market providing a real choice for individuals and companies frequently unwilling to use other more established portals.
“We know that construction professionals want to talk to each other but many see some existing social networks as being too frivolous or merely offering an outlet to advertise employment opportunities,” said Colin Felton, Chairman of the CFA Group.
“It is the main reason why we have developed Talk.Build which will only be used by construction professionals such as architects and surveyors, specialist manufacturers, contractors and others involved in the building business and cannot be accessed by anyone else. We never ask for lots of personal invitation from anyone who signs up – they just have to work in construction in some way”
Talk.Build will offer safe and secure real time conversation allowing construction professionals to exchange ideas and make comments. It will also offer users the opportunity to form exclusive groups, open or totally private, allowing them to talk to their own customers or peer groups with ease on a minute by minute basis.
Other facilities include space for blogs, images, videos, the opportunity to have polls on various subjects that affect the industry and much more. To find out just how user friendly it is simply log on at www.talk.build.
Talk.Build is a not for profit initiative and will always be free, but users will be able to advertise if they wish to help cover running costs and the portal will continue to offer new functions in line with demand.
