Twitter Follow Strategy: Are You Really Building Relationships?

by Wayne Liew on January 18, 2010

If you are immersed in the crazy world of social media, you don’t need another person to tell you how powerful Twitter has become as a marketing tool and a platform to network or to discover new connections. People use Twitter in a variety of ways. Marketers and business owners apply different strategies to make Twitter work for them.

I am on Twitter for almost two years now. I achieved a lot in terms of getting business, building traffic for this blog and I also established professional connections that I might not have come across if not because of the platform. However, stepping into 2010, I want to get more out of Twitter by switching my strategies a little, especially after getting some inspiration from Twitter Marketing: Why You Don’t Need to Mass Follow Users by Maki.

Please note that this is not a post on how you should be using Twitter. Everyone is entitled to use Twitter the way they like it. This is just a new strategy that I am experimenting. If you have your own Twitter marketing strategy to share or suggestions which I can implement to improve this strategy of mine, feel free to leave a comment below.

2009, 2010 Cakes for New Year

It’s another edition of the Weekly Biz Buzz and I hope everyone has recovered from their New Year blues.

If you are subscribed to a number of blogs, you would have noticed that recently published blog posts are mostly about trends, things to expect in 2010 and resolutions. In fact, I published my own about mobile application development.
