Social Saturday promotes social enterprises in social media showcase!

Social Enterprise West Midlands encouraged people to Buy Social on the 13th September by promoting social enterprise members in the network.

Social Saturday was a national campaign led by Social Enterprise UK and encouraged people to purchase from social enterprises and help raise the profile of the sector.

To mark Social Saturday SEWM held a massive social media showcase calling for enterprises in the network to submit their videos and photographs detailing their products and services and how people can Buy Social.

SEWM were delighted to promote about 20 members through social enterprise videos on the SEWM YouTube channel and share lots of members’ photographs via Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.

As of today (15th September 2014) the Social Saturday videos have received over 570 views collectively and SEWM hope that not only has additional value been delivered to members but that people across the region think social enterprise in their next purchase to make their pound go that much further.

Read all about the social media showcase in SEWM’s Social Saturday Round-up here which includes a special introduction from Chris White MP for Warwick and Leamington. Also included in the Round Up is links to all of the videos, regional press coverage about the campaign and more.
