SocialMedia.ie and DMI provide Social Media Training to ITAA

Conor Lynch and Cian Corbett of SocialMedia.ie had the pleasure of conducting training sessions with the ITAA on behalf of the DMI yesterday. The Irish Travel Agents Association are embracing Social Media as a way of engaging with their customer base and growing their business.

Social Media is proving to be the perfect medium for Travel Agents as holiday makers love sharing their holiday photos through Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus and Blogs. More importantly, Social Media channels are a huge source of information for customers to research  a holiday destination and holiday provider.

We look forward working with the ITAA again the near future.
