Use Twitter to your advantage
Imagine standing in a room full of thousands of interesting people. Then imagine that everyone can hear everything everyone else is saying clearly and effectively. Imagine being able to choose who you want to listen to, who is just plain faffing, and who just said what you were about to say. Imagine finding resonance with hundreds of people on topics that you always thought were outlandish or specific only to you. Imagine getting up to an email saying, “His Holiness The Dalai Lama is now following you on Twitter.”
Twitter has helped people get more lucrative jobs, friends, apartments, numerous professional assignments, a support system of thorough-bread, self-made professionals and a place to opine unusual ideas.
Twitter can get your friends, discounts and giveaways from major brands, free invites to concerts, keep you abreast of the latest happenings in the city and the world and is a direct line to any celebrity/author/tycoon/DJs.
Organisations and businesses have saved immense marketing dollars on Twitter. Hippo gives away a giant hamper of chips to anyone who would tweet them the address of a store that doesn’t sell Hippo chips.
Too bored of a full-time job? A few tweeple offered to handle Twitter accounts for a monthly fee, and then went travelling — since they could do this from their phones! And everywhere they went, they had tweeple to hang-out with.
A lot of people say that they tried Twitter and it didn’t work out for them, or that it’s become a dating site. But Twitter is like the rest of the world, where you meet all kinds of people. You have to find your kind of crowd and find people that you connect with. Well, you just have to find your expression in 140 words, or less.
