Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that had been growing at lightning speed with about 5.5 million users at the time of this article. I had no idea what to do once I signed up for my free twitter account. Now I’ve learned what to do and I’m filling up my Teleseminars and my how-to-make-information-products classes with people who came directly from twitter.
Twitter Tip 1: Follow More than just your friends and family.
At first, I was only following one person and couldn’t figure out why in the world anyone would care about random messages about what I was doing and I was sick of hearing all about what he was doing 24/7. I almost (gasp) stopped using twitter altogether because I did not understand it.
Now I follow everyone except those people who look like they might be spammers. By having a lot of followers, every time you send out a message or an invitation to a teleseminar or a new product, those people who are interesting in your subject will sign up. More sign ups to your teleseminars means you are building your list community and more customers who can sign up for your products and classes.
Twitter Tip 2: Go to Your Twitter People (Tweeple) when You Need a Boost.
Sometimes you might have a bad day. It’s hard to create products or do much else effectively when you are feeling negative. We all have days like this. I’ve noticed that most people on twitter are extremely positive and caring. If I ever feel discouraged, all I have to do is go to twitter and read some of the posts or interact with my tweeple and I can continue my day with an infusion of inspiration.
Twitter Tip 3: Survey Your Tweeple to See What Kind of Products They Would Buy.
One day I wanted to do a little market research and I decided I would send a survey to my regular list community and the same survey to my twitter followers. I was amazed at the higher responsiveness from my twitter followers compared to my regular list community.
I believe it’s because on twitter people are actively engaged and everyone is flooded with email and many times email is simply ignored. I know I don’t read most of my email or I would never get anything done. I got a huge response from my twitter and they helped me decided which product to create next. I filled up that class with a lot of people from twitter!
And now I would like to invite you to my Free weekly Product Creation Teleseminars

Failure. It’s not fun. Doesn’t feel good. Makes you question yourself and what you’re trying to do. Makes most people simply give up.
Did you know that THE most successful people all have also failed THE MOST?
Since becoming an online entrepreneur, I had heard about Article Marketing, the long term benefits of it and how easy it could be… When I began dipping my toes into Article MArketing, almost ALL of my articles were rejected. One failure after another after another… I could have given up but instead, I sought out the expertise of a trainer and coach who could help me and teach me as quickly and easily as possible how to do it right! That teacher was Jeff Herring, the Article MArketing Guy (who’s known in many circels as The Everything Marketing Guy!)
I took one of his courses and… Voila! My articles were being accepted by article directories AND even more importantly, I learned to craft a Resource box that was not about ME, but about what my products and services could offer OTHER PEOPLE. And I began to benefit from the traffic and list building of Pre-Qualified prospects becoming part of my subscriber community.
In fact, you may have found me because of one of my articles! I’ve also become a syndicated columnist because of learning how to do Article Marketing correctly!
I actually have a slight problem with the name Article Marketing. I think people get scared of it because they say
Oh brother… I have a business to run and on top of all that I have to do, you want me to become a Writer too?!
But I look at it differently now. Each article is like a Free Advertorial that is out there on the internet, placed in extremely well-trafficked sites, sending you people who are actually interested in what you offer., WITH links back to your site!
Each article is actually a content-rich Advertising. And you know what will happen if you use traditional advertising like the Yellow Pages. That’s gone the way of the dinosaurs and is pretty much like flushing your money down the toliet…
If you don’t tap into things like social marketing, which includes Article Marketing, you won’t have a business soon. You can’t argue with what IS working.
Jeff is the best Article Marketing teacher out there and he’s just designed a course to make it simple to follow for beginners. (Although experienced entrepreneurs have been raving about it too!)
