@angelamaiers shares 26 Ways to Get Twitter Success on Social Media Explorer
Here are a few key lessons that I share. Take a peek, and let me know what you are teaching to your community, business, or organization to ensure their success.
- Active – Many folks give up on Twitter way too early! Actively participating, even when you don’t fully get it, is the only way Twitter will make sense.This means being active both as a listener and as “Tweeter”.
- Be Honest – Share what you know, share what you don’t, ask for what you need, and give what you promise. The more transparent and authentic you are, the more respect you will get.
- Click – Click before you tweet – there is nothing that frustrates more than a fantastic link to a post or resource that does not work. A simple”click and check” can save a lot of retweeting.
- Don’t Worry! – Many new Tweeters worry about things like: Will I get followers? Will someone like/ not like what I say? What if no one responds? …. don’t worry. There is no one right way to Twitter. Discovering what works best is a lot trail and error. Be yourself. Have fun. Be open to learning from others, and you will do just fine!
- Encourage – Some of my lowest days have been lifted up in seconds by my Twitter friends. In 140 characters we can turn someone’s day around, encouraging them to smile, get well, or make it through the day knowing someone is routing for their success.
- Follow Wisely – With new Twitter tools coming out daily, there is no reason to fret over who to follow. Some of my favorite ways to find and connect with new followers are Mr. Tweet , Twellow.
