Thank you for joining us to learn about Social Media for the
Pump Industry!
I am the President of Empowering Pumps, LLC and
Publisher of EmpoweringPumps.com
I have been in the industry for 9 years! The majority of my
career I was spent as an Account Executive for Pumps &
Systems Magazine. This is where I fell in love with the
Pump Industry.
For the last two years, I watched and learned from leaders
the Pump Industry. I could see there was a need for online
platform to utilize social media. This is why I built
EmpoweringPumps.com and designed every page to use
social media in some way.

Twitter is Hard
Twitter is for Entertainment
Twitter is for Young People
Our industry is not using Twitter
I don’t have the time to learn something new
5. Twitter Reality
Twitter is Friendly, but not Personal
Facebook is the Personal Platform
Think of Twitter as a mini blog.
It’s a tool to drive your customers to a particular site
Twitter builds a friendly respect between followers
For example, Favorite Fridays #FF is a day of thanks and
giving a mention to those who were nice enough to follow
or mention you. This is one of my favorite days on
Twitter.
