Believe it or not #BoostTorbay doesn’t get any kind of funding, doesn’t charge anything for its featured account or even for putting together a small blog post each week.
Yes there are thousands of these hash-tags out there, believe us we’ve seen most of them.
#BoostTorbay was started all the way back in 2012, 4 years ago and in fact its our 5th birthday next year – did we mention that we’re only just starting to really, like seriously, thinking about planning this.
So what do we get from #Boosttorbay? Well financially we don’t get anything from it. However what do we get is an enormous amount of satisfaction of hearing “I met this person through #BoostTorbay” or “we did business with x who we met through #BoostTorbay”. For me if I can help just one business a year, then #BoostTorbay will of done it’s job of connecting businesses with customers.
Our new website, which has been in production since before even we can remember, is all about focusing on businesses and customers.
Right that’s the self promotion out the way onto the checkin.
