Use Twitter to Grow Your Network Marketing Business
Kenny Boykin

If you have been online for any length of time, you have probably heard about Twitter, or maybe have even started using it. It is a social media channel—the focus is relationship building. “Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: ‘What are you doing?’” (twitter.com.) It is a way to connect with a community of people who have similar interests. It is quickly becoming one of the most powerful, free, web 2.0 tools available to any business owner or Internet marketer.

You may be wondering how exactly you can grow your network marketing business with Twitter. I have been using it for a while, and I am starting to see some great success. Let me share with you seven ways you can use Twitter to grow your network marketing business:

1. Twitter allows you to grow your lists, albeit in a different manner than most of us are used to. You create a list of followers who are interested in what you have to say. This is great because these people will see all of your tweets or messages that you send out, and they are opting to follow you. Focus on increasing the number of people who follow you, and over time, some of them will become interested in your business.

2. Pay attention to your Twitter username. This is the name that is after “twitter.com” when you register. I recommend either using your full name or a catchy name that explains your business and what you do.

3. Be sure to complete your Twitter profile. Include a link to one of your websites as well as important keywords which describe what you do and who you are so that people who are looking for you will be able to find you by doing a keyword search.

4. Take advantage of the other Twitter applications and related sites. These include:

• TwitterLocal: Allows you to search for people and tweets within your local area.

• TweetLater: Allows you to automatically send a message to everyone who follows you.

• Tweetdirectory: Allows you to search a directory of everyone on twitter with several search options.

5. Make sure to tweet at least twice a day. Make your tweets interesting and relevant to not only your business but also your audience. Include updates to Squidoo lenses, new blog posts by you and other interesting ones you find online, as well as interesting quotes and facts you find online. You can also share personal details of your life as long as they are positive and not too revealing.

6. Take the time to visit the sites listed in the tweets of others. Comment on their Squidoo lenses and blog posts, and in general, return traffic to them just like you want them to visit your materials.

7. Every once in a while, participate in the conversation by sending back tweets to other followers preceded with the @ symbol. This serves as a message directly to that person.

In short, you can benefit from the amount of exposure Twitter will bring you. It is a free way to drive targeted traffic to your website. It can be a great way for you to develop an audience and fan base and to grow your network marketing business. The trick is to work it properly and then give it some time.
