For US government agencies, your social media is now a public record. From Facebook comments to X threads, social media is the new "townhall", so it's more important than ever to be asking yourselves "is my organisation truly FOIA-compliant?"

Our latest blog outlines why this is so important and what you can do about it.

Is your social media strategy reaching the "silent majority," or just the same 10% of your followers? When Manchester City Council set out to build a 10-year roadmap, they didn't just post a survey and hope for the best. They went to Friday prayers, mastered TikTok for Gen Z, and checked in on the data weekly to ensure their feedback wasn't just loud, it was representative.

The result? 10,000 high-quality responses and 1.3 million impressions. Read our latest blog for five top tips that Manchester City Council used to generate this kind of response: https://orlo.uk/kmpe5

By using Orlo, they didn't just post and ghost, they engaged in the comments, tracked performance and really understood the impact this campaign had on their community. Read the full story here: https://orlo.uk/0A7SW
