Since joining Twitter, I have been introduced to a whole new Sphere of Networking Influence.
Connecting to people with common interests, worldwide, in a matter of a click and a tweet, is powerful, especially for us operating online businesses.
Check out 3 simple Twips to maximise your Twitter experience, after the jump!
On Twitter, we follow Tweeps (Twitter users), they follow us back – sometimes not, but don’t get offended. We RT tweets (RT = Retweeting/forwarding something of interest) to our followers.
We promote our business, catch on the news, search for information around the globe and much more.
Plus, every Friday, we follow the Twitter tradition to #FollowFriday or #FF other Tweeps: Recommending Twitter users we find worth following, to others.
Something very similar to suggesting a good book or movie to friends. An effective promotional system, when done right.
So how can you maximise your Twitter experience even more? Here is how, in 3 simple Twips (Twitter tips) that truly work for me:
- Reply to your tweets in a timely fashion: check under your @UserName frequently to follow the conversation, it’s basic courtesy
- Target your #FF recommendations: by highlighting your Tweeps area of expertise, they will appreciate that
- Have Tweet-Meet : wherever possible, extend your tweets to an acutal meet. Face to face meetings are always good for business
Twitter does wonders for those who use it efficiently, so don’t hesitate to connect and grow, be original and informative, and stay in the know.
Share and Enjoy
