Why you want to use Twitter
November 27, 2008
Choosing the right marketing for your business can be a challenge. When it comes to web 2.0 markeitng it then becomes a question of time and value. Is it worth your time to use twitter in your business?
How much is it worth to you to be able to quickly connect with your customers
without postage stamps or undeliverable email? Twitter makes it possible for you to stay connected with your costomer and let them know what your working on. IE:
that big Black Friday sale. It’s also a way for you to gain new customers quickly
and easily.
Over a 90 day period on Twitter, I’ve been able to find 900+ followers who want to see what I am doing. Twitter is much like an email list, but more effective in deliverability. When you post to Twitter your followers will have your post on their page.
Connecting with your customers is important in maintaining your customer relationships. With Twitter, you do this by answering the question “What are you doing?” Twitter has Spam and you don’t want to participate, so make sure your smart about what you say and how you say it.
Are you ready to get the conversation going? Ask a question, like “Would you like to goto Hawaii for $199 for the week?” or “Did you vote today?” Your followers will simply reply back with a direct message (dm) by simply putting @jaynapier and answering the question.
If you want to know what your customers are thinking, this is your open page to create that 2-way conversation that will produce a stronger business. I recently saw where Dirks Bentley is offering a free tree ornament when you renew your fan club membership. It’s great PR and what I feel is the best web 2.0 that
is not video.
