Keeping members updated on what’s happening in the Missouri State Legislature is a challenge for association leaders.

Always one to embrace the potential of a new technology, Ric Telthorst, from the Missouri Telecommunications Industry Association, asked LHC to help him get started with an MTIA Twitter account.

LHC helped narrow a list of possible Twitter username, designed a Twitter page that coordinates with the MTIA brand, and helped Telthorst get his phone ready to tweet.

The association’s early April launch onto Twitter has proven to be a valuable means of communications.  Since then several other LHC clients have gotten on board with Twitter, including the Missouri Cable Telecommunications Industry Association, Laurens County [SC] Chamber of Commerce, Laurens County Development Corporation, and the Missouri Optometric Association.
