Social Media - promoting business

17 August 2015 - 03:48 PM

Trying to drag our business a bit further into the 21st century - we have created a Facebook Page. 

I have checked a few pyro related FB pages - Coopermans excellent Optimum page for example.

 

We want to add some interesting topics/posts/photos etc which go a bit beyond our companies core topics of blowing things up/instructing others on how to blow things up/consulting on explosives legislation etc etc

 

A simple plea - if anyone has the time please visit our FB page -  www.facebook.com/skewenergetics - like us if you like the page - comment or post if you wish - we are quite happy to answer forum type questions there but it is not a replacement for these forums. 

 

For the really deep thinking ones - we are on Twitter - @Skewenergetics - please follow - tweet to us - retweet our tweets etc etc

 

Thanks for taking the time to read this. 


Big thanks to fruitfulsteve

Just want to publicly thank UKPS member Fruitfulsteve for passing our company details to the BBC who were recently seeking the provider of some specialist blackpowder blasting. 

We have just returned from a successful day on location in Cumbria, a county now less a few large granite boulders.

Skew Energetics Ltd (www.skewenergetics.co.uk) owe you a beer or 3 steve. Thanks again.
