Constant Raving has decided that we are not using eblooger to its fullest capacity. While continuing to blog our Tweets we will also begin to blog substantial content about 3 times a week. We want to inform the public and business owner about social media, its uses, and how it can be the most important tool in your marketing arsenal.
For instance, Twitter is a fabulous way, not only to stay connected with friends and family, but also to connected with businesses. You can link Twitter to your smart phone so that tweets show up as an SMS. You can choose the people and businesses you want to receive SMS Tweets from. When someone sends a message using Twitter, it is refereed to as a Tweet.
This morning I received a Tweet from Starbucks telling me that today was free Pastry day. All I had to do was print out the coupon from their website and visit the closet Starbucks to receive my free pastry. YUM!!
Sending out Tweets to your clients with daily specials, discounts and coupons is an excellent way to drive customers to your door.
