Not everything you post needs a link. If you limit the number of links,
you will bring more value to the ones that do!
To compose a tweet in the proper format, you need to have
all of the individual elements in the correct order.
Start your tweet with text and then add a link. Make sure to
include the attribution with @mentions if applicable. Then
add hashtags and insert your image.
“Whether you’re managing an international brand like Nike, or a local deli, it’s important to say thank-you to every follower who asks a question, has a problem, or gives you a compliment. Some will respond back, and others will retweet your response simply because they want to show their friends that you’ve engaged with them.”
A strong bio can lead to more followers, and will introduce your brand. Be descriptive and to the point. Don’t try to be too funny or witty as humor can be subjective .
By Tweeting consistently and at the right times, you will keep followers engaged and will keep your brand in the spotlight
Tweeting Daily Specials is great! If you are always selling you will be unfollowed quickly. Talk about involvement in Community Events. Sponsor a local hockey team? Update the scores. Avoid hot topics like politics. Save it for your personal account.
