Using Twitter Automation to Boost Your Business Reputation

Spending time building your reputation on Twitter is a time consuming thing. Sometimes the time you spend is not equal to the returns. To stay relevant, your business has to Tweet at least three or four times a day – to gain new followers and open up new lines of communication.

      @Chris, you’re right – Twitter is a great tool for monitoring what your client base is saying about you, thanks for the tip! There’s nothing more sincere than apologizing on Twitter for a mistake or an inconvenience you have caused your client base – people see it, and they like that you’re making the effort! Great post:)

    I have used all three social media tools. For social media strategies and time management, I prefer Hootsuite and it’s mobile iphone app which allows me multiple accounts. It’s quick access and response allows me to maximize my time.

      @ Blair – Hootsuite is definitely one of the better tools, and a well designed mobile app goes a long way as well, especially for the marketer on the go. 1 point to Hootsuite!
