28 Mar5 Essential Twitter Tips for Business

If you don’t already know, let me be the first to inform you that twitter has become one of the most popular and important part of the social media mix.

Trying to monetize your twitter efforts is an incredible challenge, but do-able nonetheless. Here are the top five Twitter tips for making money for your business.

1. Tweet Useful and Interesting Information

People tweet about everything. Since over 75 million people are using Twitter every day, it comes as no surprise that there is a huge amount of nonsense people tend to write about. You need to work differently, tweet about business related things, and share things your followers, clients and colleagues can actually find useful.

2. Follow People From Your Business Industry

Let us be very precise here – follow people who you can learn from, and benefit from your Tweeter “friendships”. Follow people who are actually part of your target group or target audience, and keep them in mind every time you tweet / post something.

3. Re-tweet

Re-post important, intelligent and amusing things someone else has already tweeted about. Just be sure not to overuse the RT option. Come up with interesting things yourself as well, otherwise you will eventually lose your followers.

4. Tweet Every Day

Tweet whenever you have something important to say or announce. In ideal situations that would be 3, maybe 4 times every day. If you tweet too often or never tweet at all, your followers will stop reading your tweets.

5. Complete Your  Profile

People prefer knowing who they are communicating with, so be informative and introduce your company properly with a company profile.
