However, there are a number of technicalities which are essential for better and effective marketing through the social media Twitter. They usually do not involve something technical that only marketing departments of companies with vast experience in the field can understand. With the following know-hows, you can put Twitter to your marketing agenda with ease.

Communicating

As mentioned earlier, Twitter is arguably the easiest source to keep all your followers up to date to the latest of developments and information regarding your business. What is a positive notion of this social media website is that it helps your followers or potential customers to communicate with you just by the click of a button (the reply option on twitter). This is the fastest way in today’s world to communicate the essentials of the business. For example, a local cinema would use twitter to update all the latest listings to their followers, keeping them up to date with all the latest shows, dates and promotions.

Generating leads

Making tweets regarding all promotions, new products and special offers usually make the follower curious and encourages them to know more about the promotion or product. This temptation leads to the follower becoming a customer of your company and subsequently results in sales. An example of this would be that a local vender tweets about a ‘buy one get one free’ offer.

Branding the personality

Twitter is a great way to generate a fresh image to the followers. You can always tweet with a particular image of your company in mind; what you want the followers to perceive about the company, its background, and about the people that are running it. An example would be a bookshop constantly tweeting quotes and humour on the twitter account that would make the followers perceive the book store management as lively.

Researching trends

Twitter is also essential for research purposes. It is not necessary to send out tweets always; you can simply follow different friends and monitor which orange is the new black of the market. If your company is in the production and sale of children’s toys, hypothetically speaking, you can follow the worldwide toy giants such as the Toys’R’Us and always see what the latest action figures are.

Feedback and Customer Service

By replying and marking your tweets as favourites, the followers can always provide positive as well as negative feedback to you, and by replying to their tweets, you can provide them with your valuable assistance and any guidance they demand.
