Marketing and Twitter

Posted in Marketing, Technology by User ImageDouglas Karr at 10:25 pm

I just wrote about Marketing and Microblogging a couple days ago and it’s a great conversation that’s starting. I’m telling you folks this is a Marketer’s dream:

  1. It’s cheap and easy
  2. It’s permission-based
  3. It’s brief and to the point (140 characters!)
  4. It can be automated and integrated (API and RSS)
  5. It’s social with great word-of-mouth opportunities.

Doug,
Thanks for the mention! This is a very interesting discussion that I’m looking forward to tracking. I think there are more marketing uses for micro-blogging than we know right now.
