I attended a Tweetup at Northwest Totem Cellars last night. This Tweetup was organized by @SeattleWineGal also known as Barbara. I have attended a few of these events recently and they are a great way social media can benefit a business looking to promote itself and reach out to a different audience. Our evening started […]
