Today we held a Twitter competition using #PippaPRTips in collaboration with CorpComms Magazine as everyone’s got that Friday feeling!

As Pippa Middleton’s book Celebrate, a party-planning advice book, sparked a lot of attention for erm…let’s say, its simplicity, the #PippaPRTips trending topic was about encouraging fellow PRs and journalists to tweet obvious PR tips.

The winner will receive a copy of Celebrate by Pippa Middleton.

We’ve been laughing hard all day at all the tweets and it was great to see so many people getting involved!

A special shout out to:

• Andrew Bloch (@AndrewBloch) for getting the most retweets
• Native Consultancy*(@Native_Comms) and Mynewsdesk UK (@mynewsdesk_uk) for their consistently amusing tweets throughout the day
• Rob Yeldham (@RobYeldham) for his top 10 #PippaPRTips
