Why is #londonbizparty an amazing networking opportunity?
#londonbizparty is not our idea originally. Have you heard of the #irishbizparty?
#Irishbizparty was started on Wednesday night when Samantha Kelly was having a particularly demanding week and she decided that she would try to create a bit of positivity and thought that surely she was not the only one coming across the same problems while trying to grow her business online with the help of Twitter and similar social media platforms.
She asked the question on Twitter if there were any businesses who needed help promoting themselves and asked them to tweet what they did using the hashtag #irishbizparty so she could re-tweet it for them.
She has received lots of replies and small businesses started to join in the conversation to promote and engage with each other's businesses.
This started with only 30 businesses taking part initially. It has since grown rapidly into hundreds and #irishbizparty trends regularly on Wednesdays and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon!
Let's create #londonbizparty together and help one another with Twitter promotion, free advertising and social media engagement. After all not the number of followers that matter, but the quality of information and engaging conversations blooming into amazing networking opportunities.
You can find out more about @irishbizparty on Twitter and on the irishbizparty.org website.
