Doesn't time fly when you're having fun on social media!
After the business #SBS win, we were looking for other networking opportunities on Twitter and when we heard of Jacqueline Gold #MOM (Men on Monday) we decided to take part. So on Monday 26th March 2012 sent a tweet to Jacqueline Gold about the business and got on with the business day.
Noticed some increased email activity and decided to pop over to Twitter and was surprised to discover that I was one of the 5 chosen that week. Not only that a few other fellow #SBS had also won that week too.
Got a new badge but discovered no one was doing anything to show off the #MOM and #WOW (Women on Wednesday) wins apart from the badges, so I initially design certificates for both competitions and sent a tweet to Jacqueline Gold, little knowing what would come from it. Was beyond chuffed when she tweeted that I could.
Post the #MOM win I was also introduced to the Ann Summers netowork that was following Jacqueline, some of which were Party Planners and was contacted to discuss some design and print work thet were needing, from Business Cards, Loyalty Cards and Workwear.
As time went on and was starting to do more certificates and other goodies for winners, Jacqueline Gold out of the blue sent me a very nice #FF tweet thanking the business for the support and about the #WOW goodies, which was quite a surprise.
Recently this win has proven very interesting as one of the Ann Summers Party Planners went to a networking events for planners and gave a Loyalty Card to the Director of Party Planners and Vanessa Gold, they liked the idea so much they may want to take it across business wide and also may want to work with the business to develop the design and concept.
Goes to prove that, it's not what you win but how and what you do with it that matters. Looking forward to seeing what develops for the business.
