New! Twitter Ideas from Mouse and Pen

To instantly download the set for the price of a lukewarm venti latte – $5.95 – click here.

Here are three ideas provided pro bono from the set to use right now:

  • Create discount offers in your tweets.  For example:  Place an order for 50 shirts today and give code tweet10 for 10% off.  Test which ones have the highest responses, and repeat variations of those as often as you can.
  • Improve recruitment marketing.  Human resources representatives can create a Twitter account and tweet about career opportunities.  Include a link pointing to the full job description on the company’s website, where an applicant can immediately take the next step and apply online.  Post a link to the HR Twitter account in the careers section of your company’s website.  At career fairs, include the Twitter address on all literature.
  • Special events.  When you produce special events, designate a Twitter table.   Assign to the table Twitter-savvy reporters, important partners or valued donors who are following you or who have a Twitter account.  Chances are they will tweet about your organization during the event itself, or shortly after, providing immediate coverage.
