Tweet Tweet
Dear Dollar Diary:
For some reason, when my kids see our Pastor they tap him on the leg, giggling while chirping to him "Tweet, tweet". He can't figure out why they won't talk to him, they just tweet.
Well, now I'm beginning to tweet, too.... except on Twitter.
If you haven't tried Twitter yet, I suggest you hop right on over there and check it out.
I got turned on to Twitter by watching a video by Perry Belcher. He basically says that Twitter and other social sites are like a party, and it's a great way to invite people to your blog. Your blog is like your home, and it is there that visitors can see who you are and what you are in to.
You don't want to use Twitter to promote your business opportunity or find customers. You just want to make friends, build trust, and create your online footprint.
Chances are, once that trust is established and you've made a presence, people will be curious about who you are, and pop in to your blog or website. They may or may not subscribe to what you have to offer, but remember that there are less than 6 degrees of separation nowadays, and good prospects are connected somehow to the people in your sphere of influence.
The main thing to remember is to be cool, be friendly.. be YOU! Offer valuable content so they will come back for more. Give without expecting to receive. If you build it... they will come... so start Tweeting!
