Twitter Presence
A Professional Twitter Presence
Define Your Purpose
Before you go changing anything around on your twitter profile to make it more professional you must decide what the purpose of the account is.
Is your purpose to connect with friends and family?
Is your purpose to share important updates to customers of your store or online business?
Is your purpose to attract potential clients and to give them an understanding of why they should choose your product or service?
If your purpose is only to connect with friends and family then you don’t really need to have a professional presence in my opinion.
But if your purpose is business related then the following steps will help you create a professional presence on twitter.
Sometimes people will have a personal and a business-related purpose for using twitter. In those cases I recommend having a personal twitter account and a separate business related account on twitter.
1. Get a custom background
2. Use a picture of yourself
3. Your phone number
4. List your email address
5. Be professional in your tweets
6. Tweet regularly but don’t overdo it
7. Only follow people that you’re interested in
