Keri –

I tend to agree with you on the third party issue.. in fact reading this I was excited to see others felt the same way.. I’m glad to at least partially confirm my suspicions!!!

Hi Keri,
Great article.
I personally use all the tips you mentioned.
I also engage my audience like asking them question both on Facebook and Twitter, or asking them to share something.
I find that random posts which might be interesting to your audience, but are not that relevant to your business might be effective as well.

Jocelyn,

You are exactly correct that the average person could get overwhelmed at first. Amazing that 140 characters can keep us all spinning so, eh? 🙂

Also nailed it in recommending that we all “just be ourselves.” It’s social. And we are indeed talking about social media.

Thank you for adding value to the conversation!

Karla,

Thanks very much for your kind words.

I’d be curious what other social media professionals would list as examples of Twitter tweets and their recommendation of numbers of “acceptable” hashtags per post.

Always appreciate your thoughts, 🙂

Lots of great points here Keri. There are so many tips and tricks and I think at times the average person can easily get overwhelmed. I think the best thing to remember is always just be yourself. I know for me, I get the most engagement when I’m just being me. Social is just that. Thanks for a great article as usual. Love all the examples you used and I will for sure check out the Content Calendar you included. Thanks much! 🙂

Annemarie,

My pleasure to feature you – Your information is always stellar, and I would hope to highlight your professional approach.

Hashtags – Yes, quite important. You use them well. Over-use can work in reverse, though. Depending on the tweet, only one or two would I recommend. Curious what others think. 🙂

Thanks for your comment,

Denise,

Hashtags do help put you in touch with new people. Sometimes I forget, but when I use them I find a big difference. However, over-use can be detrimental, so finding a good balance is key.

I’ve always got post-it notes all around. I’m smiling that you mentioned it…

Thank you for sharing your thoughts,

Good reminder about #hashtags. I know that I underuse these and I would have better results and engagement if I put a big post-it note on my screen to do so.

Hi Keri,

Great post with some very important tips! Thanks so much for including me in your article too!

I think the use of hashtags is very important, otherwise people (who are very interested in what you have to say), may never come across your tweet.

Thanks for sharing Keri!
