Irish Local Businesses Using
Social Media Successfully
Thanks to @darraghdoyle for the RT.
And to Anca Comsa for the PPT.
In March 2014, I was presenting at a conference of Irish retailers.
I wanted to find good examples of local businesses using social
media well. I put a shout out on Twitter, and was amazed at the
response I got!
So I decided to share the responses to name check these local
businesses who are flying it, and to provide a resource for anyone
else who needs it.
