Twitter Whats It All About Then ?
Today's tribal signal is about the micro-blogging platform, Twitter. Much has been said about this little bird, but it would appear that many people are still struggling to understand how it fits into their business exposure strategy.
One person who has mastered Twitter is Sally Asling of Surrey Lets. Sally generated approx. 15K of business out of Twitter in just 8 months.

The easiest way to grasp the significance of Twitter is simply to understand that it enables you to become known and trusted as the "go to" person for your product and/or service. Once you gain traction on Twitter, it becomes what I call a "serendipity generator" and will deliver targeted people to you, almost on demand, as other people share you into their networks! You can also leverage other people's followings to help find your ideal client or the person that you need to help you move your business forwards. And, of course, Twitter is f*ree to use!
At our Surrey Social Media Tribes networking meeting on 27th May in Guildford, I will be explaining more about Twitter and showing you how to build a targeted following. Using strategies I have developed over the past year or so, I will reveal how to "mine" other people's followings, how to search on Twitter, and how gain traction on Twitter quickly. Bring your laptop and have some hands-on practice with myself and Nick to guide you. Great networking and education for just £10.00 entry fee means this is a worthy investment of your time.

The social web is the future of business exposure, so the longer you delay in getting started, the further you are falling behind and becoming less relevant to your customers!
