<p><span style="color: #000000;">Back in 2009, I carried out an online survey on “How Has Twitter Helped You”?<br/>
Would be interesting to see how marketers / business people are using Twitter in 2018.<br/>
If interested, please leave a comment (below) or a tweet with how Twitter has helped you in marketing / in your business (and briefly the nature of your business).<br/>
Thank you!</span></p>

<div class="comment-content"><p>Since I started using Twitter (in June of 2008), I’ve increased my contacts significantly (not just on Twitter, but on other social networks like LinkedIn and Facebook). The increase in contacts is great; but the value of the contacts and the freelance business it has brought me is even better.</p>
<p>Twitter has also increased traffic to and exposure of my blog, provided me with endless ideas for blog posts, and allowed me to discuss those ideas with more people.</p>
<p>Twitter, in the immortal words of Maid Marion from Men in Tights, is Twiriffic!</p>

<div class="comment-content"><p>It’s certainly given me something to evangelise about! I work with small businesses every week here in the UK, to increase their exposure & get more sales, and Twitter + Tweet Deck are two of the most essential tools!<br/>
With footfall fall off businesses need to seek out the best Social Media Tools to get it back & create new, 21st Century, routes to market. I have great fun meeting new people & getting that message across! We handle Internet & Social Media Marketing at all levels and firmly believe that “anyone who ain’t tweetin, ain’t livin!”.<br/>
Twitter is definitely helping to increase traffic to the Blog and the Website with every day that passes, AND you get to connect with lots of wonderful Tweeps – what more could you want!</p>

<div class="comment-content"><p>Twitter has helped my business get the word out about the online marketing video services we offer. Everytime I write a new blog post and put it on Twitter we get a rush of traffic to our website. Once monthly we also publish an e-newsletter and I will let people know when it’s coming out with a sign up link. Everytime I do that we get about 5-10 new subscribers every month. I also should mention it has helped me build valuable networking relationships with people at other companies who I have met at “TweetUps” in our area. Through these relationships I have gotten several projects to create new online marketing videos, viral marketing videos and online tutorial videos for several new clients. Twitter has been integral to the growth of our business.</p>

<p><strong>TWEETS</strong></p>

<p><strong>EMAILS</strong></p>
<p>In response to your post on Twitter, I thought I would offer the following. I am an executive-level “outsourced�? CMO. I provide strategic advice to clients on how to best spend their marketing dollars to increase revenues. I use Twitter primarily as research. I have been able to collect tons of research data on performance of social media and general marketing, expert advice and access to content that I can’t find anywhere else. It is a constant learning tool and I use it for educational purposes. I have had 3 client meetings in the past two weeks where I used information I picked up through Twitter links by some of the best followed social media experts. I have just started using it as a platform to send out content that I gather to my “followers�?. The intent is to use it for my own brand credibility and source of expertise. My motto is simple, “If I don’t know, I’ll find someone that does… and share it.�?</p>

<div class="comment-content"><p>I’m midrange technical, a master dabbler as I describe it. As such I walk the line between technical and non-technical people. One of the hardest things many very technical folks run into is understanding why the others “don’t get it”. On the other side the non-techies really focus on their job and technical stuff, hardware and such, is no more than a tool to get from A to B.</p>
<p>Myself, I see this in my daily communications. One of the things I like to do is make a shortcuts that bridge the gap. When I write blog entries they tend to be on tech subjects even if they’re intended for a non-technical audience. These blog entries frequently take hours, sometimes days, to write, review, etc.</p>
<p>Amongst other benefits in the simple world of Twitter I find it easy to complete thoughts, tasks and questions which otherwise languish. It’s ultimate simplicity in both usage and learning curve is what makes it as powerful as it is.</p>

<div class="comment-content"><p>I work for Qube Media, a Brighton based social media agency. Twitter has kind of revolutionised the way I use the internet. It is brilliant as a take it or leave it news source, and it also allows me to keep in touch with colleagues, friends and useful industry acquaintances without having to go through the hassle of sending an email. It is a great way to ask for help or generate new ideas and thoughts if you are stuck on a certain subject, and also a brilliant tool for spreading content around the web.</p>
