GROWING YOUR FOLLOWING BASE

TWEET & TWEET OFTEN!
...


Twitter is considered an information portal, and it provides you with the
opportunity to find joint venture partners, affiliates and network with
leading marketers in your niche
...


Rather than having to set up detailed profiles, or post lengthy updates on
your account, you can quickly blast out 140 character snippets and updates,
leaving you plenty of time to focus on growing your business while still
taking advantage of Twitters' global outreach
...
You can incorporate
existing contacts from your email address book, join Twitter based
community directory sites, and even look for new contacts by simply
following people in your market
...


Let's begin
...
Your profile is a simple one page outline that
includes a short bio, your website URL and your contact information
...


While many marketers attempt to utilize this area to secure customers, the
most effective campaigns begin with establishing yourself within your
market, and you do that by offering quality, free incentives
...

This will give you the opportunity to personalize their experience and to
connect with them on a deeper level

The best way to monetize your Twitter activity is through "indirect
marketing"
...


They aren't there looking to buy products or sign up for service offers, so
you need to take an indirect route in order to really maximize your income
and stand out in the marketplace
...
Then,
set up a simple squeeze page that offers an incentive to those who visit
...
Your subscribers will receive instant access to your
incentive offer once they confirm their requests to subscribe to your list
...


You never want to start sending out promotional based offers until you've
established your footing, and have really done your part in connecting with
your audience
...


If you aren't able to create your own content offers, consider using private
label content to develop high quality offers for your subscriber base
...
You could also use private label articles and even
full-length newsletter sequences to quickly power up your mailing list and
keep fresh content funneling out to your subscriber base
...


Make sure your opt-in form appears on every page of your site, and if you
really want to save time and money, consider downloading Wordpress and
creating a niche oriented blog
...


Tip: An opt-in box should appear on the side template of your Wordpress

...


It's far easier to establish a following within Twitter when you have
something to offer, and if people visit your profile page and they don't see
that you're an active member of the community, chances are they'll be
hesitant to follow you
...


When building your following base, begin by incorporating your existing
email contacts into Twitter

The next step is to participate in Twitter based communities, including
http://www
...
com

We Follow is a full featured Twitter directory, and you can quickly add your
Twitter account information to the directory, as well as categorize your
focus, so that your Twitter account is placed within a specific area of the
site (based on your market)
...


Another popular directory is found at http://www
...
com and it
features a search tool as well as the top 100 people being followed on
Twitter, the Top 100 updaters (who updates their Twitter status
frequently), the Top 100 followers and the Top 100 favorites
...

Automating Your Marketing
One easy way of automating the list building process with Twitter is by
using the services of www
...
com

You can send out automatic direct messages to those who begin to follow
your updates
...


When it comes to using Social Oomph to build your list and initiate first
contact with those that follow you, be sure that the product you are
offering on your squeeze page is extremely focused on your niche market
and offers something of value
...
Try to offer something original, even if it’s a short
report or mini-product, the more exclusive it is to your list, the more likely
that your visitors will subscribe to your newsletter
...


This means that you want to make sure your automated DM message, as
well as every tweet you broadcast is seemingly written for the benefit of
the reader, rather than direct advertisements
...
Rather than posting a link to
a direct news story, post a summary of it on your blog and direct people to
your page in order to read the message you are broadcasting
...


Once you have them on your blog, they’ll likely explore your website and if
you’ve done your job of developing relationships with your following base
and staying active within the twitter community, it will be a lot easier to
convince them to subscribe to your newsletter or purchase your products
...


Focus on giving, more than receiving and you will quickly discover, just how
effective twitter can be in helping you further your brand and building your
online business

Tweet & Tweet Often!

When it comes to writing tweets, don’t spend a lot of time worrying about
whether it’s creative enough, witty enough, or interesting enough
...


For now, post whatever’s on your mind
...
Perhaps you’ve found an interesting website or news story, post about it
...


Once you’ve posted your first tweet, it’s time to start following people on
twitter, so that you can build up your twitter presence, and encourage
people to follow you in return
...


Take the time to talk to people individually by directing messages to
specific people, post useful information or links to free products and
resources that people in your various niche markets would appreciate
...


A great thing about Twitter is the ability to quickly locate other people who
are involved in your target market, or industry
...


It’s like a rolodex of the entire online business industry, and as Twitter
continues to grow, more and more people are jumping on board, so expect
to see Twitter evolve and change to improve their system and add more
interactive, productive features that will make it even easier for use to
reach out to other users
...


The way you present your updates, and the frequency in which you do it,
(avoiding Twitter spamming) is critical in staying current and helping your
brand become memorable, and noticed by the community
