If you are a social enterprise supporter and you want to get involved in BuySocial.ie and #BuySocialIRL, let us help you!

Social Media

Use this opportunity to promote the social enterprises you are supporting. Help sell their products and services, tell us their story, share their contact details, their videos and their smiley faces! Here are some ways to get involved:

  • use #BuySocialIRL in at least two social media postings (Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok…!) during the week of 14th November 2022 (and beyond the week so they can be found!)
  • include the hashtag #BuySocialIRL and #ARISE in the post
  • have a listing on the buysocial.ie website (contact us if they don’t already have a listing!)
  • aim to get their social enterprise into at least two media outlets
  • contact their local CRAOL.ie (community radio station) for a radio interview
For extra bonus points:
  • contact at least two local councillors, a TD, an MEP or any other elected official to take a photograph with their social enterprise and social media hashtags above
