It is with great sadness that RMM say ‘goodbye, good luck and don’t look back’ to Matt Rebeiro. Matt has been with us for most of the summer, but has responsibly/foolishly decided to return to college to complete the final year of his degree and re-open the doors of RaW 1251AM, where Matt is station manager. However, wipe away those tears right now and pull yourself together, for the following two reasons:
Reason 1: Matt will be staying with the RMM family as a part-time blogger and general all-round internet audio and radio guru.
Reason 2: We are joined by a new recruit for the next 4 weeks: Alistair Lee. Alistair is fresh out of college, just back from a stint of travelling and a new recruit to the embittered and grizzly world of digital marketing. So welcome him with open arms, and be nice – for the first few days at least.

Iain founded RMM in 2006, with the objective of providing good, strategic advice across all areas of digital and social media. Nowadays, the focus is entirely social and involves the provision of more than just advice – insight, inspiration and expertise in social media. Iain leads the strategy development and training teams on most client projects.
He specialises in leading client strategy projects in a number of sectors, including finance and gambling, where RMM has conducted studies into social behaviour in highly regulated environments. He also leads projects for travel sector clients, a sector in which RMM works in partnership with eCRM sector specialist, Spike Marketing. They work together across a number of clients, most recently including Neilson Holidays, Thomas Cook’s ski and active holidays division.
Prior to RMM, Iain spent five years helping to run the web design business, Tonic, winning and managing accounts such as Vodafone, GE, GAP, MTV and Barclaycard. Before that he worked at Tribal DDB London, working on Volkswagen before heading up the Victor Chandler, Sony Europe and Guardian accounts. And before that he had a colourful career in music promotions, running the annual Soho Jazz Festival in 1997.
Iain spends quite a large amount of time trying and failing to explain to his long-suffering wife why he really loves golf, seventies hard rock and eighties pop. She remains none the wiser.
News that you have already *replaced* me leaves me with that jealously only brought on when you find out that your ex is dating again before you are. Cue evil squinty eyes at Alistair…
In other news, ahoy hoy Alistair!
Yeah, Matt, well at least they waited for you to leave…
