Tell me Thursday – July 19, 2012
The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for the social networking site, Twitter. This site is a good way for people to share what they offer, communicate with others, and meet potential customers. Read on for more information on this great social networking site and how it can help you grow your business. If you missed the picture, click here to view it.
Growing a business online is not as easy as some people may think. It’s difficult to build trust when people can shake your hand and meet you face to face. Since those important things aren’t possible, you must build trust in other ways and one of the best and easiest ways to do that is through Twitter.
Twitter is a messenger type platform. It is much the same as Yahoo Messenger or Skype. What you type into the box and send is immediately visible by your followers. This is good because it gives you the ability to put messages out there that may be time sensitive.
When Twitter is used properly you’ll find it will be easier for you to grow your business. If you only make business related posts you are wasting your time and that’s not good. It’s important to build trust and that’s done when you communicate with your followers and you show them you’re not all about business, but you care about others as well.
When you use Twitter for both your business and personal needs you’ll find your business will grow and you’ll see success. When you do this people will see you’re a real person and really needs, wants, and desires. That’s the best way to grow.
If we’re not following each other, let’s do that now. My profile on Twitter is @WAHMArticles and you can share your profile link in the comments if you choose.
