“Twitter is Great for Getting the Word Out About Your Top Home Business!â€

I'll be honest with you, I never thought I would be giving anyone material concerning how to better take advantage of Twitter to market your at home based business. But here I am, tweeting away on a regular basis.

As cockamamy as it may sound, there is a "unique technique" to tweeting. Trying to get years of marketing from of my head and into only 140 characters of material is a lot like the old saying, “trying to teach an old dog new tricks”, but no matter your age, it must be done to deepen the marketing of your home based small business.

It's a great way to "touch base" on a personal level and in real time. And "tweets" can be extremely  important, even if it seems so small. You've got to be doing this on a daily basis, or you won't be properly utilizing one of the extraordinary FREE top based small business marketing strategies used in today’s economy.

I've cataloged some ideas along the way to help you type finer tweets, so keep an open mind and put "pedal to the metal", because this will better the tweeting experience for you, your potential clients and your work from home company.

Think before you tweet:  First off, no one in truth cares what you are doing right now, unless it is relevant to the subject matter at hand.  If it adds to the conversation, then by all manner dive in.  But it you're tweeting just to tweet, think twice about it.  There is just too much stuff to sift through and most people don’t have the time to have to “slog” through entirely irrelevant tweets.

Undergo the art of the tease. The very best Twittering is done by those who can engage people by leaving their followers wanting more. The 140 character format isn't much good for the entire story anyway, so start with an attention grabber that has your followers “chomping at the bit” to get to the real meat. But an unfluctuating diet of headlines can come across “spammy”, so use meagerly.

Watch your grammar. Yes, you can take shortcuts, and condense on spelling, but before you hit send, check your message to see if it says what you really want it to say. Don't let people lose cognizance of your message because your grammar is unclear.

Be personal…but not too revealing. Yes, share some of your personal life, people like knowing you have a life outside your top home business, but don't divulge too much information. If your readers are trying to decide to connect with you, it's best to be sure your tweet passes the “granny” test -- if you would write like this for your grandmother, you can tweet it.

Inspect your connections. This is very important. That said, if you're using Twitter as a tool to convince your followers to take a look at your home based small business blog, you best make certain that the information you're giving them is right. Now take for instance a long URL like our blog's 41 characters? Surprisingly I've already used up practically 30% of the 140 characters Twitter finds acceptable. 

So if you do have a lengthy Internet address, it's a good idea to check out URL shortener tools like budurl, bit.ly or tinyurl.  They'll take an extended URL and turn it into something “short and sweet”. But make sure the shortened variant is correctly directing someone to where you desire by consistantly inspecting to make certain.

In conclusion, I would say that tweeting can very productive on the one side  AND a total waste of time on the other. Cautiously prepare your Twitter strategy, like you prepare your Facebook and LinkedIn strategies, staying on message of how your brand is going to solve any problem they may have. 

Stay seamless with your strategy and don't get off focus. It can be difficult to not get drawn in to the never ending on-going tweet-fest! But remember that, even if you are working part-time attempting to earn extra money from home, your top intention with Twitter has to be professionally related which is in this case, utilizing social media to promotemarket your at home based business.
