The problem with social media marketing is that most people do not understand how to unlock its potential sites in order to grow their business and twitter is no exception. Twitter is all about staying connected with people in real time with short sweet conversational elements. Once you learn to unlock its secrets then twitter marketing becomes a breeze.

A concept that’s crucial to understand on twitter is what I call social intimacy. Science has shown that people tend to be more open and friendly online with people they don’t know then they otherwise would be in real life. This is because of the perceived distance that cyberspace creates. What this means to you as a marketer is people will tend to be more open to your proposals if you understand how to interact with them on a social level rather then just using twitter as a means to push sales pitch after sales pitch.

Twitter conversations or “tweets” are short and to the point. In fact you are limited to only 140 characters. This means you need to learn how to make your conversations short and to the point, without coming off as a marketer. Once you are able to do this then you’ll be in a position to unlock the power of social intimacy.

With twitter marketing it doesn’t matter the niche your in, because it’s all about being able to create short conversations that are relevant and to the point. Once you understand how to interact on a social level without being a blatant marketer then you’ll be in a position to unlock the power of social intimacy.

The easiest way to create social intimacy is with the power of gratitude. Showing gratitude is one of the best ways to create a connection and allows you start a social connection that has genuine value. Then you’ll be in a position to promote yourself without it coming off as a blatant marketing promo.
