Fast and Simple Tweeting Tip

I wanted to share a neat tool you might find useful in helping organize your tweets. The tool is called TweetDeck.

It’s a power app allowing users to maximize the Twitter platform. The way it works is really simple. TweetDeck enhances the Twitter interface becoming something far more robust. You can search, spell check (yes, for me that is important), track specific folks and learn who mentions you or your firm. It even interacts with your company Facebook and LinkedIn accounts by displaying the news feed and allowing simultaneously posting.

So what’s the catch? None. The tool is free and takes 30 seconds to download. Why I am I sharing this? Because as a digital marketer I run into new things each day. A lot is garbage, but some turns out to be pretty useful. Anyway, while social media is just part of the marketing puzzle, it's grown to the point that leaders can’t claim “that stuff is not for my business.” If you have questions, feel free to reach out.

Lastly, on the “shameless” promoting side … am excited to announce that Al Dente just launched a new Digital Marketing workshop. Please CLICK HERE to download the eFlyer for more information.
