Has your small business considered using Twitter chats to raise their visibility? How about to generate leads? What about to interact with journalists and influencers?
Did you know that almost all of my influence grew from my usage of Twitter? My collaborators and I were singled out way back in 2011 by Yahoo! Research and Cornell University in a study of who was influential on Twitter.
Are you aware that the best way to meet influencers is by participating in Twitter chats? #TwitterSmarterClick To TweetWhat about journalists? So many journalists are on Twitter that a study of how journalists use Twitter became a dissertation that led to a book.
In a 2019 survey of journalists:
- “39 percent expect to spend more time on Twitter in 2019. While 50 percent expect to spend less time on Facebook.”
- “Twitter is a good source for news as it is happening.”
- “online newspapers and magazines were their primary news source (60 percent), followed by Twitter (25 percent).”
Some journalists even “wonder if their profession is tweet-crazy“! Others “call for journalists to stop tweeting“. But until that happens, Twitter is your fast path to reaching journalists and influencers.
How much could your small business benefit from having a journalist mention you in print, on radio or television. Think of the increased visibility and credibility you would enjoy.
