Inspired by the Queens’ Diamond Jubilee and to celebrate women in business, Dylan Moore of Aqua Design decided to start #QueenOf days on Twitter which was run every Thursday 9am – 9pm. Women in business simply sending a tweet about their business using the #QueenOf hash tag with one winner chosen and retweeted and given a custom badge.
This proved so popular that it’s been running ever since and has been taken over by Andy Quinn @ADG_IQ when there was a call-out for men in business to a day for them, so Andy decided to start #KingOf days.
As the businesses profile on Twitter has grown to over 15,000 followers on both accounts, the winning businesses have been given a greater profile and there are now two winners a week for #QueenOf days with over 200 winners and one winner a week for #KingOf days with over 50 winners.
Dylan commented:
“I am really glad that the business can have a positive impact on all types of businesses and that Andy is doing his bit to promote businesses far and wide.
“A website is being planned as a base for winners to talk about themselves, with regional ambassadors and networking events for winners to connect.”
