Welcome back 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. Previously, I shared with YOU, the top five, here are the top 6 through 10 ways to improve twitter productivity.
Twitter began as a fun and innovative way to achieve social networking, and 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 6 through 10 of the top 10 ways to improve your time on the Twitterverse.
6. There are some helpful applications that will help you filter through the millions of people tweeting at any given time. If you do not siphon through these tweets, you could spend a great deal of time looking at messages that may be of no help. Make use of the filtering tools to find the right tweeters so that you can spend less time looking for them.
7. Keep an ongoing list of the most helpful users. Instead of following a great number of people and spending a long time looking through all of the tweets for one particular person, a short list of the best will help you get right to the point.
8. Use twitter as a helpful timer. Many people do not know this, but Twitter can serve as an alarm clock on sorts. You can simply send a direct message to a timer with an amount of time and a short message. When that time has passed, you will receive a tweet telling you your own message. This can be very helpful when you have busy days.
9. Know how to use the re-tweet. There are millions of people on Twitter, and they may not be following you. However, if you send a tweet and then ask for your followers to re-tweet, your message will reach thousands of people in a mere matter of seconds. The re-tweet can be powerful if you use it correctly.
10. Use alerts to your best advantage. When you need to know what people are tweeting about you or some of your customers, you can use applications to set up alerts that will key off of certain words. These alerts can provide you with valuable information and even lead you to new customers.
