How I Find Customers and Make Money with Twitter

How we will increase number of followers?

I recently discovered twitter as a great tool for promoting my blog. And I never thought of searching for customers by keyword, that's a great idea for promoting.

Good post. I agree that searching and answering questions is a great way to find customers. I think many of the established companies are doing the same to leverage “social media” in improve their customer service.

I don't really see it that way. Most of the people I see on Twitter are too busy selling themselves or their business to be helpful any kind of way.

This particular feature of twitter is what makes google want to buy them hehe :)

That´s another good way to use Twitter. I see this is becoming one of the most used way on Twitter.

Wouldn't your time be better spent on something with a bit more leverage? Do you think targeting one twitterer at a time is a bit slow? What about writing posts about the common q's that pop up then direct people to them?

Good post. I agree that searching and answering questions is a great way to find customers. I think many of the established companies are doing the same to leverage "social media" in improve their customer service.

The other way to find customers is also by gaining access to an account that already reaches your niche. Sites like Assetize (http://assetize.com) have some accounts listed for sale, and the cost-benefit might be worth it. Something to consider...

That's very true about helping others. Not only are you doing a good deed, but it's good promotion for your company. That person will most likely end up following you on their own.

This is a great post on twitter. While most of bloggers started using twitter a long time ago, I'm still giving it a go. That's why I'm learning everything on the service before I start using it.

Certainly if you know the art of digging twitter than you can pick gold from there and I think these ideas of yours is telling such facts.

Great post John! I believe that we can make some good money with twitter, I tried to direct message some people who seem interested in a special product and depending on how you promote them, it worked. However, 145 letters for promoting a product is very short! You have to be concise enought to write only about the essential.

Benjamin Cip’s last blog post: Still Wondering How To Avoid Products Scam ?

I've been using this on and off. Unfortunately I believe that many people don't even check their @replies, at least not regularly. Which is too bad. I have to admit that making money with twitter is a very thin, balancing act and conversions are probably not as good as with other avenues.

I can imagine how much soothing it would be for you to write following sort of statement.

"Google generally works with old material while a search on Twitter gives you real-time information on topics people discuss."

if you will click More Option in google you can have latest page index by google on related keyword.

I have not got aorund to using Twitter as a money-making tool, I still use it to chat to people.

The more I do this the more I am turning against using Twitter to make money because I get bombarded with spam accounts desperately trying to sell me acne cream or films of Britney having sex.

Wow i never thought twitter was that useful thankz john

Very cool. I was thinking about doing this to help target my followers a bit better, anyway.

Multiple accounts for multiple niches is a good thing, too.

Wess Stewart’s last blog post: Dropbox: Sync and Backup Your Files! Free!

Great post John. You bring up a really excellent point here. Twitter can be used as an easy, not to mention free way to reach out to costumers and answer their questions. I myself have used it this way and have found it to be a fantastic tool to doing this.

Ever since Twitter added their search feature it has proved to be very useful for people who're looking to follow people to find people that are actually interested in their niche and what they're talking about.

Twitter is a fantastic tool to not only connect with other people, but to connect with potential costumers as well. Friendfeed is also becoming a very useful tool as well since they are now also getting into the real time update system. I think Twitter should watch their backs because Friendfeed could give them a run for their money.

Again, Great post John.

Hi Marko. That's a good point about how Twitter is an up to the minute search engine.

Your article made me think about Yahoo! Answers. It's kind of like that but in real time. I've been using Yahoo! Answers in the way you suggest we use Twitter for awhile.

There are lots of people on there asking questions you have solutions to.
