That’s right, Roger Smith is on Google Plus! @RShotel #Rogersrooms Giveaway

Posted on 09. Jan, 2012 by JohnKnowles in Community, Hotel

Last week marks a turning point in our social media engagements as we began our community initiative on Google Plus. What better way to jump into the growing platform than under the guidance of marketing and blogging expert Chris Brogan. On Wednesday January 4th, 2012 Chris met with our team and talked with us about Google Plus for business. We have been lucky to have Chris be a brand ambassador over the years and are thrilled to be able to engage with him about such a fresh topic! We are currently building our presence on the platform and will be launching new collaborations with Chris in 2012.

If you want to know more about “Google Plus for Business” you should read Chris’ book and engage in the conversation.

As part of our #Rogersrooms initiative, I will be giving away a 2 night stay at the Roger Smith to be used in January as part of this blog post. To win the #Rogersroom contest, please tell us your favorite feature or fact about the Google plus platform and why you think it is interesting. The most unique, cleaver, useful, or original feature presented will win the contest! If you present a case study of who is innovating with in the platform, that could help you stand out as well! Please post your comments on our blog or this G+ post to be considered.

The stay can only be used in January 2012. I will be choosing a winner on Wednesday January 11th. I look forward to your feedback!

Be sure to follow +Roger Smith Hotel and engage us with your interest, ideas or inquiries. We will be hosting Google + meetups in the future and are excited about the relationships we will build on Google + in 2012.

Please share, comment and engage!
Thanks
