Effective Tweeting

Last week I gave an over view of Twitter for Profile which I will take further in this Blog. After spending time viewing what was happening in the Twitterverse I decided to put some plans into action. I decided that I wanted to use it as a social and business tool for www.theruralmeetingplace.com
Initially I set about finding people in my catchment area to 'Follow' in the hope that some of them would follow me back to enable me to have an audience to speak to as well as to have an arena for conversation with the people and businesses that I was following.
To achieve this audience I set about viewing the followers of people whose Tweets I enjoyed and selecting those that I thought I would enjoy following. One quick click and the base of 'Followings' started to grow.
I found that there were some very interesting conversations happening and that people were posting some very relevant Links to articles, websites etc so as well as having some Social Discourse I was actually learning at the same time. When people started 'Following' me and responding to my Tweets that just increased the conversational possibilities which in turn increased the possibilities for me to highlight the role of The Rural Meeting Place. Some people are interested in joining, some in the Events that are listed in the Calendar and some in the Marketing opportunities that the site can offer and some were interested in chatting generally and becoming friends on a social level.
All in All this is a long term Marketing strategy for The Rural Meeting Place and the other accounts that I am setting up for other projects.
Next week I will discuss what I have achieved so far and how I did it.
