A Brief Introduction

Page 5: Using Twitter- A simple and comprehensive guide for Inbound Marketers

What is Twitter anyway?

Page 6: Using Twitter- A simple and comprehensive guide for Inbound Marketers

How is it useful?

• Twitter contains information you will find valuable.

• Messages from users you follow show up on your home page for you to read.

• It’s like being delivered a newspaper whose headlines you’ll always find interesting

• You can discover news as it’s happening, learn more about topics that are important to you, and get the inside scoop in real time.

Page 7: Using Twitter- A simple and comprehensive guide for Inbound Marketers

Is it necessary for me?

• YES! It is.• The website is like a big social newspaper

where you can post anything you want to shout out to the people

• It is a semi-professional way of being socially visible online

• Build links & contacts, join discussions, and become a digital celebrity.

Page 8: Using Twitter- A simple and comprehensive guide for Inbound Marketers

• Some people find it useful to contribute their own Tweets, but the real magic of Twitter lies in absorbing real-time information that matters to you.

• And for businesses, the real value lies in distributing real-time information that matters to their followers and related people.

their products and services, – gather real-time market intelligence and feedback, – and build relationships with customers, partners and

Example• Cadbury @wispa• Promoted Trend increases positive mentions of

chocolate bar #WispaGold 1,800% and drives 25% engagement rate for “Retweet for Sweets” promotion

Page 28: Using Twitter- A simple and comprehensive guide for Inbound Marketers

Jerry Daykin Social Media Manager @Cadbury

• “The positive engagement around Wispa Gold on Twitter exceeded our expectations,” says Daykin. “For the most part, chocolate bar consumption is an impulse buy and it is difficult to gauge purchase intent.

However, we saw numerous Tweets with an intent to purchase Wispa Gold — this is because Twitter satisfies the immediacy of disseminating temporal thoughts and information. Friends reading these Tweets could be influenced to also make an impulse buy, especially since many users are already out and about checking their Tweets on their mobile.”
