SCB Welcomes twitter!
 The Seoul Convention Bureau (SCB) is excited to announce the official launch of their new twitter website. The twitter site has become a great way of keeping business travelers, meeting planners and the convention industry updated on new events and activities of the SCB and the city of Seoul. In the coming months the SCB will be planning promotions and giveaways to promote their new twitter site.
The twitter site is called 'miceseoul'. The 'mice' in miceseoul represents the meetings, incentives, conventions and events (MICE) industry. The twitter site is just one of the social media websites the SCB is utilizing to reach a wider audience. The twitter site can be found through the new SCB website at www.miceseoul.com, searching "miceseoul" in any internet search engine, or by entering www.twitter.com/miceseoul into your internet browser.
"Our new twitter site has become an innovative way of sharing information about Seoul and the bureau's activities and so far we've had excellent feedback from our 'followers'" explained the online marketing manager at the Seoul Convention Bureau. "Even though using twitter in the MICE industry is still quite new, many other bureaus are now beginning to use social media as a marketing tool. We are excited about offering this new service and we're getting new 'followers' every day."
Since the soft launch earlier this year, the SCB has amassed 164 followers and is following 171 convention and tourism related twitter users. To date the bureau has sent out 279 "tweets" of information and regularly sends out: press releases, news, SCB newsletters, MICE industry trends, green initiatives and a variety of information about the city of Seoul and the Seoul Tourism Organization's events and festivals.
 Currently, the SCB is utilizing other social media tools such as Flickr, Vimeo, and Share This. Through Flickr the SCB is able to share pictures of the events and activities of the bureau and its activities. Vimeo provides a similar service using the bureau's promotional videos and recent activities. Finally 'Share This' is a convenient way to share the SCB website content through your personal email, blog or dozens of other social media sites with friends and colleagues.
The SCB looks forward to keeping its loyal twitter followers informed and entertained with its new site and other social media tools. Also, stay posted for upcoming contests and promotions to be announced in the up-coming months.
