• Connect with followers.
• -You can make new friends in Twitter by following
  them. Using a tool such as Follower Wonk will
  allow users to find people whom they share the
  same interests, location or related to the
  competition. Following them and making light
  conversation is the way to form relationships
  with people online. It is not advised to sell or
  talk about the products or services that the

• 2. Tweet scheduling.
• -Checking on Twitter has already been a daily
  routine for most people nowadays. People usually
  do this as the first thing in the morning, after
  they have had their lunch or later on in the
  afternoon. That is why having tweets scheduled
  when you know the right time that the audience
  will be present is an excellent plan. Scheduling
  in Twitter means that a person simply chooses the
  times within a day where they will be hanging
  around for a conversation or using tools such as
  Hoot Suite to help in tweeting automatically
  instead of manually. Whichever technique you
  prefer to use, it is important to interact with
  people who are following you during the times
  when they are waiting to be interacted with.

• 3. Sharing news topics.
• -If you are subscribed to RSS feeds or blogs, you
  can share at least one content piece that you
  have read for the day which has made you analyze
  or bring out emotions from yourself. For those
  who are not yet subscribed, feed readers like
  Google Reader will help people stay updated with
  their favorite blogs and will always have content
  that is worthy to be shared with their audience
  even in the wireless Internet world.

• 4. Find out about your audience.
• -Knowing who your target audience is in Twitter
  is very important because it will help you decide
  on what information or content to share in which
  they will be interested in. If most of the people
  in your audiences are already experts in a
  particular field or industry, tweeting about
  beginner How Tos or tutorials is something that
  you do not want to do. You also would not like to
  go over their heads too far by talking about
  advanced techniques on a topic that they have
  just begun learning about. If you take the time
  in developing a user profile that is ideal for
  your audience, it will help you share information
  that will be more relevant to them and will keep
  them interested in you as well.

• 5. Start being helpful.
• -During your free time, do some searches in
  Twitter for problems that people are discussing
  and which your company can be a solution for.
  Sharing resources or a relevant link that will
  help them with their problem is a good idea. If
  you do not have an answer regarding their
  problem, you can have their message re-tweeted to
  see if anyone can help.
