WHAT IS TWITTER? A social communication tool and not a simple push marketing channel A free social networking microblogging service that allows registered

members to broadcast short posts called TWEETS. An online news and social networking service where users post and read

short 140-character messages called ”TWEETS". The world’s watering hole


WHY TWITTER? You do not need to be famous. You do not need a huge following before you can start seeing results. You do not need any marketing budget regarding money for advertising. Twitter has become a powerful channel for authority, digital diplomacy,

statecraft … and scandal. A new global engine for how we connect, discover, and learn.

You can follow ANYONE – in the WORLD! And talk to them And see what they are talking about And see who they are talking to And be part of their conversation


SHARE EVENTS AND CAMPAIGNS


SHARE NEWS AND APPLAUSE


WHY TWITTER? Generate traffic to your website or blog Connect to influencers Connect to potential customers Start conversations or take part in conversations Build brand recognition Find information Help your sales Gain influence Be seen as a thought leader or expert Have fun!@LisaLFlowers [email protected] 703.862.8743

TWITTER CHATS@LisaLFlowers [email protected] 703.862.8743

TWITTER CHATS


TWITTER CHATS: PRE-CHAT Think about the topic before the chat. Write down thoughtful questions and answers before the chat. This can

save you a lot of time! Follow the host and guest on Twitter. Consider following other participants before the chat and letting them

know you look forward to seeing them there.


TWITTER CHAT TIPS: PRE-CHAT Think about the topic before the chat. Write down thoughtful questions and answers before the chat. This can

save you a lot of time! Follow the host and guest on Twitter. Consider following other participants before the chat and letting them

know you look forward to seeing them there.


TWITTER CHATS TIPS: DURING THE CHAT Be sure to include the chat hashtag in every tweet. The tweet chat host will use “Q” and the number for each question. When you respond or answer the Q, mark it with A (for answer) and the

number of the original question so other participants can link your response with the correct question. A4: Here’s an example: Q2: What is your favorite color? A2: Purple


TWITTER CHATS TIPS: DURING THE CHAT To engage other chat participants:

Like or retweet their tweets. Chat with them (using the hashtag) during the chat. Let me know you like their

tweet. Don’t over promote, but do use the chat to highlight your expertise, share

knowledge about the topic, etc. If your recent blog post, upcoming event, or services can provide value to people

in the chat and relates to the conversation, mention it in your tweets.


TWITTER CHATS TIPS: AFTER THE CHAT Follow up after the tweet chat. If others retweeted your tweet, thank them. Offer compliments to other participants, the host and guest. You’ll probably meet new people and get new followers through the tweet

chat. Introduce yourself and follow them back. Follow the people behind those tweets and keep the chat/convo going! If you enjoyed the chat, tweet that you will see everyone next week or

whenever the next chat is scheduled.

#THEHASHTAG


THE HASHTAG A unique ability to rapidly unify a group of people

Usually through an idea or cause expressed in a hashtag Arab Spring movement was organized through hashtags. It unified a disparate group of

strangers and propelled revolutionary activities that always seemed to be one step ahead of the government.

The ALS ice bucket challenge Could have only happened through the free and public power of Twitter hashtags

NY Times article How ISIS is using Twitter (and social) as a primary recruiting tool

Facebook, Instagram, texts, general communications Now using hashtags
