We are Golden Twits!

Last night the inaugural Golden Twits awards took place to recognise UK organisations and individuals that use the Twitter social media platform best.

There were sixteen categories to get through during the proceedings. The ceremony took place at the Fabric nightclub in one of the trendier parts of London and saw nearly 100 people attend the event itself and many more tuned in online.

BHP Information Solutions'  @MarketingDonut account was nominated in a total of four categories, including the Public vote award which was made up of the likes of that pesky meerkat, Aleksandr Orlov and the world’s richest football club, Manchester City.

We were truly delighted to be the recipients of two awards on the night. The @MarketingDonut Twitter account has been recognised for its tweets in the Public service and Information service categories. Also, thanks to your votes, we secured 5^th spot in the public vote and even beat the meerkat!

Of course we are delighted with our awards and fighting over who gets to keep them but we are genuinely grateful for the tweets, conversations and followers who put us in the position to be rewarded. In the spirit of sharing the best of everything online, we think these awards belong to the vibrant community we are forging online and hopefully will inspire you and your small business to give Twitter a go.
