Does Twitter Baffle You? Check out this free guide for tons of answers to common questions!

March 04th, 2010

Hi All!

In all of my seminars and workshops for small business owners about social media marketing, questions about Twitter always seem to get asked the most.

Audience members, and my one-on-one clients, always ask things like:

1. What is Twitter?

2. What is a retweet?

3. How do I retweet and why should I?

4. How can I customize my Twitter page?

5. How can I build more traffic on Twitter?

6. How do I find people on Twitter?

7. What’s a tweetup?

8. How do I share vids and pics on Twitter?

9. How come people aren’t following me on Twitter?

10. What is a #hashtag?

If you can relate to any of these questions, and want the answers to them (and many others), I strongly suggest you check-out Mashable’s FREE online Twitter Guide Book. They cover just about every aspect of Twitter you can imagine, and explain everything in a very easy to understand way.

I think you’ll find this to be very useful as you embark on getting the most out of your Twitter presence!

Cheers & Happy Marketing!

How to Integrate Email Marketing With Social Media

Hello,

The following article was published on a terrific marketing blog, internetbiznez.

Here’s an excerpt but click the link to read the whole article and find out about some new tools they suggest:

Five years ago, small businesses are on the hype of using email for marketing their business. But during this climax of using email marketing tool, social networking sites such as Facebook starts to dominate the field of internet marketing.

The main reason why small business are turning their back with email marketing and spend time most in social networking is because people are using social networking for communication than using email system. The average Facebook user spends 55 minutes a day on the site, and the time spent on sites like Facebook has increased 90% in the past six years. Bringing your business into social networking will help you broaden your potentials to reach your business.

Bye for now!
