@JoelECarlson – Happy Friday to everyone, and welcome to a Twitterview of @SarahKayHoffman. Lets get the party started!
Q – #1 So @sarahkayhoffman – Where did you grow up? Where did you go to High School? What have you done from HS up to today?
A: I attended the University of #MN #twincities. I’m a #Marketing #Advertising English major.
After college I held various #corporate positions. AE, Sales, Marketing & ultimately Marketing by way of Social Media.
And here I am today, #tweeting with you @starbucks
Q – #2 So what caused the momentum for you to leave MN and move to CA?
A: We moved from #MN to #CA for my husband’s job. He works for #Viracon based out of Owatonna. Been here 3+ years.
Q – #3 Having been in CA for 3yrs, is there anything about MN you miss? Have you found CA different from the midwest?
A: I miss something about the #midwest nearly daily. I miss the people. And family. And friends.
People are different here than they are in #mn. Life seems so much more simple back in #mn
But, to make a positive, the weather is gorgeous. I am 2 hours from ocean, mountain, snow and/or sun.
There is a lot to be thankful for in #CA, but when the opportunity presents itself, I’d love to go back to #mn
Q – #4 We will get to your Social Media work, but don’t you have some fitness/exercise interests too?
A: It actually all kind of meshes for me – Social Media + health/fitness/food & an overall passion for life.
I aim to take what I love & help others – http://bit.ly/skhhealthydeal And shared all via Social Media.
I also have several #food intolerances. So I relate to so many out there struggling with it.
I was also a #nike @humanrace ambassador last year – http://bit.ly/aQrBg I had a fabulous team of running #piedpipers:)
Q – #5 What kinds of things have you done with SM to show your concern & talents for things that interest you?
A: I would say the biggest (& most recent) thing I’ve done is the Campaign #HireHoff – http://bit.ly/hirehoff
I have also utilized my #blog via http://bit.ly/b824m9 to showcase others! Kind of like your #twitterview
Q – #6 #HireHoff has nothing to do with your worries over David Hasselhoff right?
A: Funny you mention #thehoff because in the beginning of my presentation I have a #youtube video of his!
#thehoff says, “see it. believe it. live it.” My 3 keys to success are different. I have 3 nonetheless:) #soalike!
Q – #7 So who are some people that influence your SM skills? 5-10 ppl you follow that inspire, educate or entertain you?
A: My social media inspiration/education @prsarahevans @skydiver @jakrose @digitalroyalty @mattsingley
My #sm entertainment @blakeshelton @joshgroth @missdestructo @nik_nik @chuybravo
But honestly, I learn from so many people on #twitter. There is a ton of intelligence out there.
ps. I am totally inspired, motivated & entertained by Ms. @nikisnotes & @laurasholtz – you should follow them!
Q – #8 FAVS time! – What is your favorite: restaurant, offline store, online store, summer activity & techie gadget?
A: Favorite Restaurant. Love @axelsbonfire in #mn & @wentecc in #ca
My favorite offline store? @target I could spend all day in there. Never gets old. And it’s #mn-based!
My favorite online store? Soon-to-be #opensky @opensky Currently – I enjoy @amazon & @ebay.
Fav summer activity? BBQ’s! #running outside! Hiking. Taking our dogs on nightly walks. And of course visiting #MN!
Fav techie gadget? Honestly, just my #macbook Pro. I love it so much! But would love the new #iphone!
Q – #9 If you could invite any 1 person dead/alive to dinner, who would you ask and why?
A: If I could invite 1 person dead/alive to dinner it would be @reba (McEntire). And here is why….
@JoelECarlson – I’m not quite sure what happened to our guest – @sarahkayhoffman, hopefully just a tech glitch. Everyone have a great day.
