Happy Friday-before-Labor Day to all!
Our informative, interesting, and entertaining social media campaign will be on hold until Saturday, September 8th, 2012. What?! You didn't realize that we have entire social media campaign? Upon my return from vacation, it's back to the business of blogging, posting, commenting, tweeting, and pinning. And who knows what other social media avenues will come to be in the future ...
Stay connected across-the-board:
Gratefully,
Eileen, Marketing Manager
