Our clients are always asking us to how to get started on twitter and build a following.  One of my favourite blogs just posted The Ultimate Guide to Twitter.  This provides a collection of articles from basic set-up, how to's through to advanced twitter strategies.  Enjoy!

People always ask me - “how do I keep up with the latest in online marketing?”

Well my basic answer is - "I don’t sleep & I still can’t!”

Fortunately I manage to stay ahead of most people …well at least my mom, the neighbors and a few others!

I do make staying current a priority. This is what I do:

1. Follow other experts on Twitter and list them so I can find them quicker.
2. Hang out with other experts in my own local area who share resources.

What I am seeing more and more is it no is longer necessary to self-promote in the traditional sense. In fact self-promotion is a turn-off to most. Push strategies of marketing are long gone. Online, it’s now about creating good content that people will listen to.
