Speakers’ Spotlight – Coming to You Now in 140 Characters or Less!

By Sarah Delsey – Client Services Executive

We’re so excited to announce that we’ve now joined the Twittersphere! This is another place that we hope to connect with our clients and speakers. We hope to use this medium to form more personal relationships, so we can get to know each other on a deeper level. We’re genuinely interested in the day to day experiences and challenges of our clients and hope this will give us the opportunity to relate to you in a more social atmosphere.

As well, we’ll be sharing insight on what it’s like to work at Canada’s biggest and best speakers’ bureau. Ever wonder what it’s like to work in an office almost entirely of women? Or to pick up the phone and call Canada’s most famous celebrities with a client question in between the morning coffee run and lunch?

I’ll be the official twitter-er (tweeter? Still working on the lingo), but other Speakers’ Spotlight-ers will be adding their thoughts from time to time as well. Feel free to follow us at: http://twitter.com/Speakers_dot_ca.

We look forward to meeting you there!
