Member Testimonial: Redhead Piano Bar
After attending GNMAA’s Dining and Nightlife Social Media event last Tuesday, Sara Altier from Redhead Piano Bar had this to share about her experience:
“I just wanted to thank GNMAA for putting together last night's panel. I have attended a lot of these ‘social media’ type events and this was, by far, the most informative and interesting. Ari, Audarshia, and Muhammad were great - I left with lots of great ideas on how to improve in my role as handler of our social media and am excited to put their advice to use. I am looking forward to your next event(s)! Thank you again!”
