What You Need To Know About Twitter Marketing
To make money using Twitter you need three things – a free Twitter account, a way to monetize your Twitter account (either your own website or affiliate links whereby you send visitors to someone else’s website and you earn a percentage of sales) and a working knowledge of how to market via social networking channels.
The first two of those are simple enough to set-up, but the third one is more difficult to implement. You can certainly teach yourself how to market through Twitter though, and these tips will get you going in the right direction…
- Research what people actually want
The most common mistake with any form of marketing is choosing to promote a product or service that your audience does not want or need. Therefore, carefully research what your target audience needs before sending out tweets that promote anything.
- Choose quality over quantity
It is not difficult to get thousands of followers on Twitter. In fact, if you have use certain tools and scripts then you could probably get a few hundred Twitter followers in just a few hours. However, marketing through Twitter is not a numbers game. You are much better to have 10 followers who you have a real relationship with than 100 followers who you have no relationship with.
- Talk to people instead of selling to them
Understand that your Twitter account is not to be used as a digital billboard. You will see some people doing this – they post tweet after tweet of links to products and services – but that does not mean that they are making any money.
OK, so you may not be making money immediately, but if you follow the tips given above, within a month or so you should be seeing the fruits of your labor. Who knows, within a year you could be earning enough to give up your day job!
