How you tell the story of the champion is, I think, exactly how it works… within an organization.

As a freelancer, and when you're starting out, this seems to be a rinse, lather, and repeat cycle. It gets easier the more times you rinse and lather though…

I don't know, you've made a pretty good name for yourself, when would you say, if there ever was a time, that this cycle was broken?

Companies still see it as being twitter and facebook! My role is to get out there and present to large groups of businesses and inform them that social media is so much more than sending a tweet. It is changing and going to change how we run your businesses. You will hire staff through your social network, sell your products through it, find partnerships, improve communication and effectiveness of your organisation and so much more. So that's my role should I choose to accept and I certainly do.... fun times ahead. I'll stay off the Guinness for while! Ian I'm based in Ireland and we're behind the curve in terms of social media.
