Twitter - My promotional suggestion of the month for each business owner

By: Keith R Lunt

My advertising hint of the month for this month is very easy. Make use of Twitter!

Have you heard of Twitter? Do you suppose that it is just for conversation with other people? Suppose it is a instrument only for socialising and wasting time? Think again!

Yes, Twitter possibly costs many companies a lot of wasted time as office workers follow people and add their own tweets of what they are doing that day. So now is your opening to jump in and have those people following you and reading about you.

It is relatively simple. If possible customers are out there, maybe using Twitter and following other people, then as well they can be following you.

For those that do not know what happens on Twitter, people post comments about what they are thinking or doing. These brief comments are known as Tweets. As a member of Twitter you can in addition follow other people. By following people, when you sign into Twitter you see a list of their most recent Tweets and read what they are up to. If a Tweet that you read is very appealing, you can then re-Tweet it so that your followers as well get to read it.

And it is not just people who know about you that will read your Tweets. If your Tweets contain keywords that someone is looking for, then that person may also find your Tweet and be able to read it.

It is rather a trouble-free scheme. Write what you are doing and read what others are doing. Each Tweet is restricted to 140 characters and can hold a full website URL within that, which Twitter will translate to a link if it is a authenticate website page.

So that is the fundamental idea. And it is easy to extend that to a business position just as well as it fits people and personalities. It is well known that various large businesses have teams of people that Tweet for them. Offering voucher codes and latest discount information is a good way of getting read and re-Tweeted, thus spreading the information.

This means that for the majority websites and businesses, there is a fine prospect for some advertising through Twitter. All that you need to do is to set up a Twitter account and start Tweeting. Write concerning what is happening in your business. Write regarding hottest offers, special deals, new contracts etc.

Include on your website a link to your Twitter account with a suitable follow me badge and write wide-ranging information that other people will find and might then start to follow you on.

At last, your aim is to get your existing customers following you so that you can remind them of your products and to tell other prospective customers that you exist. It is a free system, so get using it!
