The Most Common Twitter Marketing Mistakes
Social networking sites have completely transformed the internet landscape, and Twitter is among the leaders. There are many benefits to Twitter marketing, but it's important that you don't unwittingly make errors that can set you back.
Marketing on Twitter is not different from any other type of marketing. You need to keep the same mindset and behave the same way. A common Twitter mistake is creating Tweets that are about you and not your prospective customers. The truth is, nobody cares about he specs of your product. People don't want to have to sit there and admire how great your product is. You must get that people don't want to hear how important you are. What you should do instead is to try and show them the benefits of the product and tell them what it can do for them. You have to be clear on listing out these benefits so that your prospect knows what to expect. Your prospects are going to always look for what your product can do for them, even if the product is the best in the world. The whole purpose of you being on Twitter is to sell more, attain more leads and make your business expand. Remember never to insult or offend any of your followers. The reason Twitter is so popular is because people respect each other, and they form better bonds with one another. You should approach it as you're one of them, and you're just recommending this product instead of coming off like a salesperson. Don't just go on about what the product's all about, and instead you should just bring it up in natural conversation. It's best not to just blast your followers with promotion links. You can't just mention a product, and instead you need to proceed slowly. The best way to do this is to give them some useful information initially and then offer them the product you're trying to promote. You might have a product that involves curing acne, and in this case you would give people advice on acne and then you would say that they should really get rid of it. You can even give them answers that might work, but then tell them those answers are myths or that they aren't effective. You must convince them that your product is where it's at, and to do that you have to really get them hyped up about it. This is how people get trusting of others and they're very likely to click on that link, instead of just going up to them and hoping they'll click on your link just because. You have to avoid looking like a salesman but more like a friend who recommends something with the true intention to help.
Being too closed and reserved on Twitter is a mistake because this site is a social networking platform. In order to reach out to people you will have to be more social in your approach and create a strong relationship with other Twitterers. You shouldn't find this difficult because Twitter allows you to do many things to get in contact with other people. You can answer questions, take part in discussions and also ask questions to others.
You can make lots of money with Twitter as long as you stay away from the mistakes that we just covered.
