Join Our New IPA PRSA Social Media Summer Fun! #IPAPRSAFUN
Starting July 1 through August 31, 2015 join us as we get social and share our Indie summer fun and travels using hashtag #IPAPRSAFUN! Indies unite! Share your visual stories and let’s get to know one another socially on our new PRSA IPA Facebook Page!
Start by snapping some fun summer pics: you eating ice cream, listening to a band…going to festivals…an image of your favorite beach or flower…whatever makes you smile this summer. Then share your fun summertime photos to our Indie conversation (“convo”) and hashtag #IPAPRSAFUN on PRSA IPA Facebook Page. Our social media chair will create an album of the #IPAPRSAFUN images that you upload to IPA’s Facebook, making it easy for all to view during our much needed office breaks
Mid-Year check-in with IPA Chair Gina Milani
It’s been an exciting year so far and the 2015 IPA Executive Committee team has managed to field five very popular topics in the first six months of our Indie 12/60 Series of Teleseminars. But that’s not all, we also relaunched the IPA social media channels and held our first Twitter Chat!.
For new members, the 12/60 Teleseminar series are monthly topics to help aspiring Indies launch out on their own and provide insights into new tools and features available to achieve success whether you’re just starting out or have a good foundation.
