I often read your posts and although I’m not IT or entrepreneur I find them very interesting.
This one is particularly inspiring and says how to use Twitter with respect and honesty.
Of course it’s always about the money but when you get it with integrity then your stocks are more valuable.

Folks interested in using Twitter should know that 80% of Twitter users have less than 10 followers. What does this mean? It means that most people that start using Twitter, probably abandon their accounts within a week.
That said, I am getting 60% of my business on Twitter.

So many business are able to capitalize on this growing social outlet. It’s a great way to put yourself out there amongst the millions of users, getting exposure is an obvious benefit! It helps to reach target markets that are too difficult or expensive to reach using conventional means.

Businesses should consider using Twitter as another way to network. Don’t think of it as a unique or special online tool. Instead, spend some of your business development time getting to know people by following them, listening to what they’re working on and interested in, and helping them whenever possible. Listen, talk and act like you do with people in person. Following that approach, one of the businesses I work with added seven new customers in the past six weeks. Twitter works for business.
