A social media coup for the state of New Hampshire! (#NH)

by Lani and Allen

wolvesfootballJust when you think it’s all been done in the marketing and promotions world, the renegade “not your grandfather’s state government” team at the NH Division of Economic Development busts out of convention and into the pioneering innovation game by combining social media with arena football.

According to this post on the state’s “No Bull” Business blog:

For the first time in North American professional sports history, computer terminals will be set up in a major sports arena’s concourse where fans can “tweet” about their experiences at the game.

‘This is an incredible coup for the State of New Hampshire,’ said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Communications & Legislative Director Steve Boucher, one of the organizers of the promotion. ‘With social media becoming such an incredible phenomenon, especially with the business community, this is a great way to get the Granite State excited about Twitter, Facebook and other new communications vehicles.’”

And for Team Voivod here at Epiphanies, Inc., this is especially radical, because we’re part of the team that developed this outside-the-box experiment and made it possible, along with the Division of Economic Development’s Business Resource Center, the Manchester Wolves, and Best Buy.

Love, love, LOVE to see cool ideas put into action!

Don’t forget to check out the original post, and throw some kudos Steve Boucher’s way by commenting on the No Bull blog:
