Pat Carroll is a consultant, connector and trainer. Whether networking socially or marketing digitally, he is immersed in the social revolution. After many years operating in the traditional sales and marketing area, 3 years ago Pat plunged into the exciting world of social media. He spent a year in the business development and community management of Irish on-line network, ’RendezVous353’. During this time, he orchestrated the PR and event management of the network’s launches in New York and London.
For the on-line campaign, he utilised digital marketing tools such as Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook, as well as newsletters and blogs . However, connecting ‘on the ground’ with many Irish networks, was also essential to achieve the goal of successfully connecting with the global Irish diasporas.
He later set up a consultancy company to help many different types of businesses to integrate social media into their marketing strategy. At Touch Communications, Pat’s skills within areas of sales, marketing, social media and PR, equip him with a useful toolkit to help his clients with their business development.
