Crowdsourcing Expertise.



Hireland is where it is today because a band of extraordinary individuals answered “yes’ to an ordinary question - Can you meet up for a coffee? We have an idea we want to pick your brains about?

Over these coffees respected individuals from the media, marketing, business and creative communities have been utterly generous and collaborative with their thoughts, opinions and ideas around how Hireland will advance - indeed many have become ongoing members of the team contributing expertise, time and resources to mobilize this movement.

The pioneering spirit and gob smacking generosity of these shining lights who got behind us from the get go means Hireland is set to get kind of launch it deserves. Thanks to these individuals Hireland has a media and creative campaign, website, tv production, radio production and public relations machine in development.

To put a number on these pro bono pledges would round off at an impressive figure in any mans language… To put a value tag on the input, expertise and different perspectives that have shaped and continue to shape the course Hireland is taking….priceless.

So here’s to all those conversations that happen over a coffee and the generosity of spirit inherent in people. To all of you who said yes, what can I do to help? Thank you, we are so happy you are on board.  To those who haven’t had that request for a coffee yet - keep your phones at the ready.
