I read somewhere that the only acceptable excuse for not keeping up with your social media outlets is that you are too busy with work. That has certainly been the case around the Three Chicks Catering kitchen. Summer is always the busiest season for the events industry and 2009 is no exception. This is a double edged sword, however, because people are expecting more for less. Why shouldn’t they? Society has reached a point where they say “I want transparency, value, and quality.” At Three Chicks, we say “we can do that!” With pages on Facebook, Twitter, and Blogger, we respond to the demand for transparency. Get to know us! Love us! Friend us! Fan us! Follow us! The most exciting part of being transparent is the doors it opens up for new relationships with other like minded companies. Kieranslist.com, In House Communications, RE Bar Camp, Association of Bridal Consultants and National Association of Catering Executives to name a few. There is a supportive community of bloggers, tweeple and facebookers out there navigating online territory together.
Because of the pace we are keeping in the kitchen, the pace of our social media has slowed a bit. Isn’t that the whole point? If your social media campaigns produce so much return that you find yourself “behind” on your status updates… you are doing well! In fact, I am typing this post while taking a Sunday drive to Portland. Don’t worry, I am not driving.
