Twitter Interrupted



Read More: Marketing  |  Social Networking

Twitter now accounts for 30% of the business done on the internet..or at least that's what I read last night on Twitter. The tricky part of twitter is that it is so fun and so consuming that it begins to take over all of ones computer time. Thus "

Twitter Interrupted

" needed to born.

Twitter Interrupted

is a self-help plan for twitter addicts. It is a system that allows you to continue your twitter habit, keep your friends and business associates in the loop, and also spend time focusing on everything else that needs to happen in you life and your work.

 

Here's how it works:

 

1. Before you go to bed, list out what you need to accomplish the next day. Separate your computer work into its own category and break it down into tasks. Twitter is its own category. Number your internet list in order of priority

 

2. Before signing off the computer for the night... visit

Tweetlater

or

Twuffer

and program in at least one tweet per hour for the next day. These are not relationship tweets. These are the tweets that allow you to not panic if you cannot tweet for a few hours at time. You know you're covered and that eases anxiety.

 

3. In the morning you may glance at twitter for 15 minutes before showering or even opening your eyes..but be disciplined. Pull yourself away and get ready for the day.

 

4. After a healthy breakfast of more than just coffee and biscuit crumbs on your keyboard, move towards accomplishing one of your computer tasks that is not twitter. (If you have to head out..you may tweet a little on the way, as long as remember where you were heading and get there on time)

 

5. Once your task is accomplished it's

REWARD TIME

!! You may now tweet for 30 minutes. Enjoy. This is relationship building time. Read other's tweets. Reply. Make comments. Empathize. As a rule only 1/10 tweets should be self-promoting in regards to your business. Remember tweeples, this is a

relationship building tool

not a

regurgitate your opportunity

all over everyone tool.

 

6. Now move on to your next numbered task on your list. Do this throughout the day, scheduling twitter rewards whenever you achieve an objective. Please do not forget to eat, turn off the oven or pick your kids up at school These things might need to be on your list if you have a serious twitter addiction..just in case.

 

7. At the end of the day you are free to tweet for as many hours as you can before your wrists go numb..as long as you've accomplished your list. But do not go to bed without going back to step one and two before you shut down for the night.

 

8. Word of advice. Many have spoken of losing weight due to twitter. It is hard to eat and tweet. So if you are one who needs the nutrition, please make a note of that on your daily list. We do not want to be tweeting about your demise due to twitteritis.

 

There are many other tools available to make your tweeting time more efficient. You can easily find them by googling or getting on twitter and asking about them. For those who love twitter, sometimes the tools interfere with the shear enjoyment of the speed, chaos and adrenalin of twitter. Use your own discretion.

If you have not yet started using twitter in you network marketing marketing efforts, now is the time. Make sure you take the time to Learn How to Use Twitter Correctly and you will be on your way to more traffic, deeper online relationships and more fun than a barrel of monkeysL

Some folks must build their whole lives around Twitter from what I can see. Mind you, I've been looking for a great diet after all the holiday munching so maybe I should Tweet more? lol

I'm not sure I need another habit Deborah!

 

Been thinking of learning how to use it, and wonder if you see incredible results in your business using Twitter, for the time you put into it?  Hope your Holidays were grand!

Funny!

I like your sense of humor!

Maybe an infomercial involving Twitter and weightloss is in the works?

Great Comments

Dean--What a great idea--a youtube weight loss video featuring twitter??? Are you going to create it or should I?

Paul--Twitter has been by far the fastest and easiest way to meet new people who are interested in business and friendship. I go all attraction marketing there and just make connections and build relationships. I do spend more time than prudent..but it really is so fun that it's hard to get off sometimes.

Susan--Yeh--there seem to be those who tweet all day long. I can understand the desire, but not how you accomplish anything else. Many seem to be using twitter from mobile devices and tweet from their car in traffic or from grocery lines, etc...

 

Tonie--Glad I can help

It is so true that it is hilarious!

These are the tweets that allow you to not panic if you cannot tweet for a few hours at time. You know you're covered and that eases anxiety.

Sometimes I work from a computer other than my laptop, and I feel like I cannot function without my twitterfox, or twitdeck. Things can really get crazy with Twitter.

Thanks for the article, it got me laughing, and gave me something to tweet about ;)
