3. Other Native Twitter Methods

Use Hashtags to Get Followers

  1. Find hashtags that fit your industry, by searching for your industry on Twitter
  2. Use 1-3 hashtag in each tweet

For Local Businesses
As you look for people to follow, note hashtags they are using for your area, and use these in your own tweets.

Share Local Content

  1. Regularly share the local news, events, and calendar with your followers. This will get them to retweet your tweets
  2. You can get most of this from the local news website
  3. Share weather, politics and non profit information to be helpful to your audience

Tweet Often

  1. It’s almost impossible to over tweet, tweet up to every half hour
  2. The more you tweet, the more followers you get
  3. Share news that people in your industry care about (use a hashtag for your industry)
  4. Retweet other good tweets
  5. Share funny stories

Your Twitter Profile

  1. Have a description of your company in your profile
  2. Share pictures often if you offer a visually pleasing service/product
  3. Use a fitting profile picture to represent you (accounts without profile pictures are not taken seriously)
