39. Other tips for starters Plan for change Where is the weakest link? Think about duration – not just launch; the total cost of ownership You do not have control (over 3rd party platforms e.g. Facebook) They can and will change things without notification At any point, your initiative can be removed, irrecoverably lost or be unavailable You do not usually own the rights to content, but are responsible for it Build a repository of knowledge about your company initiatives For an emergency response and for best practise/precedent sharing Take a view on: the landscape, experience you have to date, your own resources and risk profile Don’t join in because everyone else is Demonstrate intent/compliance with existing code and regulations
