It's the fastest growing social network and a great way to keep in touch with friends - we know that much. But with all those tweets flying around, surely it's impossible to keep up with more than a handful of followers? Well, yes you can, but the methods are probably different from what you think! This article shows you how Internet Marketers use twitter to promote their business and build success while they sleep.
Internet Marketers don't just tweet for fun - they use twitter to collect followers, to establish a rapport with them, to build trust and to be genuinely helpful (by responding to other users' questions and proposing solutions to their problems). And serious twitter users don't just send out general tweets to everyone - there are techniques for getting straight to the hottest prospects!
Setting up your twitter account for Internet Marketing
1 use the name you need to be known by.
2 upload a personal photo - users need to see that you're a real person.
3 use a non-standard background to stand out from the crowd.
4 spend time on a great profile with a link to your website or blog.
Collecting Followers
Follow others, see who they follow and collect like-minded people who are suited to what you are selling. You're looking for people who already want your product. Most people will follow you back (perhaps using an automated tool like socialoomph). Some may even read your message, read your profile and click your link.
An automated system such as twollo will find people and follow them for you. Once you get going with interesting and retweetable tweets, using the kind of keywords that people might be interested in, even more people will decide to follow you.
Responding
When someone follows you, send them a welcoming message that is intriguing enough to make them want to check you out (but don't try to sell them anything at this stage). Socialoomph will do this for you automatically.
When you follow someone, they will usually send you a welcoming message, thanking you for the follow. Send them a message back - unlike normal tweets, these direct messages appear in people's e-mail as well as within twitter.
Whenever anyone sends you a direct message, send them a direct message back. You want to get into conversation with people, after all.
