Twitter Success is Selling Yourself, Not Your Stuff

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Using Twitter For Business SuccessThe easiest and fastest way to become successful with Twitter is to be human. Make a real contribution to others. Share useful information that others can use. That’s what people really want. What they don’t want is to be sold to. Spend a short amount of time on Twitter and you will quickly see that a lot of people just don’t get it; there are tons of those types of people on Twitter. You can use this to your advantage to stand out from the crowd.

It’s simply about being transparent and being you. It’s about meeting people and being genuine. The best part is, it’s especially easy to use Twitter to find people you have common interests with. Just search for them using the keywords that best describe your interests.

You have to give, in order to receive. Take a real interest in getting to know those that follow you. Take a look at their blogs. Click on the links they share. The best compliment you can give on Twitter is a Re-Tweet, so do it. It will pay dividends in the long run. And before you even realize it, you will have followers swarming in to follow.

There is so much garbage being tweeted that it just gets tuned out. Be the one that sends the Tweets that people look for. This is what will make you a winner on Twitter. Once you’ve gotten their attention through genuine friendship, your followers will look for opportunities to refer you business. Just my thoughts, what are yours?

Interactive Marketing Agency

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

Hi all,

A lot of people ask what the differences are between the following types of marketing companies:

  • Advertising Agency
  • Ad Agency
  • Marketing Agency
  • Interactive Agency
  • Interactive Advertising Agency
  • Interactive Marketing Agency
  • Search Engine Marketing

And so on, and so on…

I put together a lens in Squidoo that explains various business models in the Marketing/Advertising Industry and what their responsibilities are.  Keep in mind that there is much overlap.  Some companies may carry the same title, but provide a wide variety of services while others are tightly niched.
