Twitter and Social Media

If you are not taking advantage of social media or are not currently on Twitter you're missing out big time!

Get on Twitter asap. Start looking for people who have the same interests as you or how about getting some news flash's from CNN or your local news outlet? With companies like Dunkin' Donuts, Southwest Airlines and Expedia using Twitter it only makes sense for you to be on there too! What are you waiting for?

Twitter will help you drive traffic to your website. There are other social media bloggers who are claiming 800 additional views per day to their website. I don't know, can you use 800 more views per day on your site? I know I can!

Twitter is not complicated and it's a great tool to start meeting like minded business people. You get 140 characters to work with in your mini-blog. Get creative and learn how 2 shortn txt. Every character counts.

Social media is all about transparency. Be real. Don't sell. Make friends. Don't make it complicated. Have fun.

Get on Twitter now and start sending your tweets. Your marketing will never be the same!

Here's to a successful 2009!
