Social Media Correspondents Leverage Social Media to Promote Business
Houston, Texas – November 16, 2012 – Texas Southern University Social Media Correspondents (SMC) leverage digital and social media to improve the bottom line at a local Pizza Inn.
SMC will link up with Brian Iwuh, owner and operator of Pizza Inn at 12805 Cullen Blvd Cullen Boulevard for Innovate Day, using social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and many more to promote deals, specials, and the overall business.
Brian Iwuh, a six year veteran of the NFL, recently opened his ninth Pizza Inn, in southeast Houston.
Earlier this year, Iwuh opened his first Pizza Inn restaurant at 14708 Hiram Clarke Road, and plans to open several additional locations in the coming years.
Iwuh, an experienced operator with multiple retail and restaurant concepts in the Houston area, made the decision to join Pizza Inn thanks in part to fond memories of eating at the chain during his childhood.
Pizza Inn is an international pizza chain recognized for serving a variety of fresh, popular traditional and specialty pizzas that was founded in 1958 and is headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
