Can Twitter help your business? Here is what Kate Horstead writing in “Marketing Donut” – Small business marketing – free advice, tools and resources website says

“Unless you never read the news, you cannot fail to have heard of Twitter. A social networking phenomenon to rank with Facebook, its use is spiralling – and so is its profile.

Similar to texting but with far greater reach, Twitter enables users to send and receive punchy 140-character messages (known as a ‘Tweets’) from anyone who has signed up to ‘follow’ them. It has become a popular way for friends to keep in touch and for celebrities to communicate with fans.

But businesses, too, are exploring Twitter’s potential as a marketing and networking tool. Imagine being able to send instant news about a fresh offer to hundreds of potential customers? Or pick up business contacts or customer feedback within minutes because of a simple tweet?

“Many people are still finding their way with Twitter, but you should plan what you want to get from it and how,” says Nikki Pilkington, founder of marketing agency Nikkipilkington.com. “You can only decide if Twitter works for you by trying it.”
Who can use it?

Although Twitter’s potential uses may seem obvious at first glance, less clear-cut is the type of business that can realistically use it from day-to-day. It is arguably more useful to office-based firms or those with a website to drive traffic to. But Pilkington believes that businesses from any sector can benefit from the niche marketing it offers -and bear in mind that mobile technology enables people to send and receive tweets from their phones.

“A restaurant might use it to give its ‘followers’ exclusive offers or an estate agent could post details of properties and attract a local following by tweeting news about the area,” she points out.

Travel agents are posting last-minute availabilities and gardening firms are offering nuggets of advice along with links to their websites. There is even potential for unlikely users such as plumbers or car mechanics to pick up business from Twitter as people use it to ask for recommendations for local services.
