A fork stuck in the road.
Posted on | June 1, 2009 | View Comments
Last week I made a new life transition. I’ve started a new job with Ruby Tuesday as the Social Media Manager. To be completely candid – a large(r) public company was one of the last places I thought I’d end up after my time at Abunga came to a close. However after learning about the company culture and the values they hold near and dear to success, the opportunity began to look like a promising possibility. A couple of meetings later and I accepted. And it’s incredibly exciting to lead the development of the social strategy and program for such a well known brand and one of the first (if not the first) in the restaurant industry to adopt and invest in social for the enterprise. Not to mention I’m joining a grouping of some incredibly talented people across the globe. (Jeremiah Oywang has a list of those in this role or roles similar).
AND
more importantly I’ve joined an incredible group of creative and passionate people who are primed to make some change.
So needless to say, I’m excited. We’ll be rolling out some awesome interactive changes, updates, and fun as the team I’ve joined has already planned some great stuff so keep your eyes peeled. And as always, feel free to hit me up with questions, suggestions or thoughts. Plans are still being formed but look for significant changes on the blog, facebook and twitter front.
In spirit of #followfriday – here is the team

That’s awesome, congratulations! I’ve been wanting to talk to RT for a while, so pardon me if I pitch you some ideas…

You have got to find some way to get more people to know about the Triple Prime Burger – quite simply the best burger offered by a nation-wide family retaurant chain. Let me know if you need a testimonial.

Congrats on the new gig. I also took a “real job” since I’ve stepped away from roov.com. I’m sure you’re embracing the opportunity as I’m trying to do as well.
