Several years ago, I created #SportsPRChat, the first-ever Twitter chat dedicated to the business and marketing of sports. Nearly a year ago, I retired from running the weekly chat.
Angie Taylor has taken the group to insane new heights over the past 10 months or so, while I’ve been busy being a new dad, preparing to teach a graduate-level college course and what have you.
I tell her often, but not often enough, how proud I am of the incredible, creative, community-building work she’s done.
And now Angie is looking for a co-pilot to help run what she has turned into one of the biggest chats on all of Twitter!
See the details below – and if you think you’ve got what it takes, apply! Even if you think you MAY have what it takes, apply.
Whoever gets this gig will be lucky to learn from the best!
SEARCH FOR A NEW #SPORTSPRCHAT CO-HOST
Deadline: MONDAY, Jan. 30 @ 12noon ET
Thanks for your interest!
#SportsPRchat is a Twitter-hosted chat that occurs every Tuesday night at 9pm ET. The chat features questions based on current sports issues and communications trends affecting the industry. We post questions that will encourage conversation and discussion, and sometimes, even invite industry professionals to be special guest participants.
That said, I’d love to bring in a fresh face to help develop the chat and continue the work that #SportsPRchat founder, Mike Schaffer (@mikeschaffer), began.
So, are you the new player* in the #SportsPRchat game? I’m hosting try outs.* Batter up!*
