How to Use Twitter for Business

Why Use Twitter? People go to Twitter to share what they know and learn in return. Twitter users are hungry for new ideas, opportunities, information, services, and products. If your business is not part of this exchange, you're leaving two huge opportunities untouched: growing your business and improving it. Business of all sizes use Twitter for a variety of reasons, from marketing to customer service. The way you use Twitter will vary based on your goal, discussed in more detail below.

Oh Twitter, Twitter, Twitter. Where did it all go wrong?

To rub salt into the wound, your big brother Facebook just keeps motoring on. Taking all your best ideas and frankly doing them better, sometimes worse, but eventually doing them better too.
