Sharing Ideas – Enjoying Twitter
One of the best things about the internet that I’ve witnessed is the accessibility to information – gone are the days of the travelling encyclopedia sales man going door to door (Now your computer repair guy does housecalls, which can even be ‘virtual’!) – you can access information from just a click away.
Being an avid user of the internet since it’s inception, I’ve still never found a way that really allows me to get new information in a way that suits me.
Twitter is a solution that is a little easier to read than blogs, yet I feel I can participate and add value – and the posts I read are things that I’m interested in and appreciate reading.
If you haven’t already given it a chance, I would encourage you to check it out. Twitter.com
Here’s a few ideas about what to share on Twitter:
- Industry specific and relevant events (either put on by you or others) – could be Live Event Tweets from someone participating at a conference.
- Helpful tips (also ask for help – quick surveys)
- Interesting business tools, websites, videos or resources you have come across
- Replies to other interest tweets in your community
- Interesting articles and blog posts (yours and others)
- Interesting news about your company
- Conversational promotion of your products and services (occasional NOT frequent)
- Product recommendations (ie. Affiliate Marketing) – fits into conversation
- Relevant and applicable quotes
- Hot discussion in the News (ie. Election)
Enjoy!
