Food Truck Rodeo: Further Example of Social Media's Expansive Reach

Submitted by ClickOptimize on Fri, 08/10/2012 - 16:22

The “Click Crew” gathered in Morrisville, NC earlier this week for United Way’s Food Truck Rodeo. How did we find out about the event, you may ask? A newspaper ad? TV commercial? Radio broadcast? No.

In today’s world, more and more people are using social media networks like Facebook and Twitter to find out about breaking news and events–making it one of the top news sources in the world! At Click Optimize, we exhausted all other avenues of communication before finally locating information about the recent food truck event on Monuts Donuts’ Facebook page.

Don’t understand how social media could benefit your company? Contact us today, and we will help you tailor a social media plan that allows your customers to interact with your brand and share those results with others who may find your products and services appealing.
