Hi there Valued Visitor...
My friend David Perdew, over at the My Twitter Toolbox Gold Membership site, shared the top ten ways to improve twitter productivity with me the other day. Below are the first five, I'll post 6 through 10 later.
What began as a fun and innovative way to achieve social networking has quickly become an easy and helpful tool for promoting businesses, both small and large.
If you are already using Twitter for your business, then you will want to look for ways to improve your productivity. How can you be more productive with a site that only allows you to type one hundred forty characters? Here are 5 of the top 10 ways to improve your time on the Twitterverse.
1. Sort out your followers. You can find applications that will allow you to separate the people you follow and tweet to into separate groups. This way, you can have a group for your friends, your family, business connections, and more. With these separate groups, you can focus your business related tweets on the right people.
2. Tweet and tweet often. You cannot be very productive with Twitter if you do not dedicate time to it. One way to get many followers is to tweet as often as you possibly can. By doing this, you will have more of a chance of people noticing you and following you.
3. Send useful messages. Tweeting often does not mean sending the same messages over and over. If potential followers see that you never post anything new, then they may not follow you. While you want to tweet as quickly as possible, make sure you are tweeting something worth reading.
4. Include links, but make them short. There are plenty of applications that will allow you to shorten your links to save a great deal of room. Make sure that you always use a link-shortening tool to make the most of every tweet you send.
5. Know when to step away. Of course, you do not need to spend all of your time on Twitter. Remember that you do not need to neglect the other parts of your business. Make sure that you devote enough time to all of your business areas.
