"Maintaining and consistently improving our social media strategy is crucial to inspiring our audiences around the world every day," said Meredith Pearson, director of PR and communications for VisitBritain in the USA.
"Not only do we post engaging and entertaining content to our followers, most importantly we encourage them to share their favorite British experiences with us – whether that’s tweeting a periscope video from their visit to the British countryside or sharing their Instagram photos from their city escapes. This has been crucial to the growth and engagement in all our platforms."
