Vaynerchuck and Kafka - Debate the Future of Twitter

I know that I go to Twitter before I hit Google these days for news, gossip, product recommendations, to understand what people are saying about one of my clients and well, just about everything.

What do you think? 

Oh no, Twitter, my love, my addiction, please come back to me. It has been almost an hour...

How can I get my fix? I feel an update coming on, or is it a tweet now, whatever it is, I miss you.

Twitter for Business - a presentation to narrow?

I was recently invited by the Denver Chamber of Commerce to Speak at the Business Excellence Forum. This particular forum was labeled as a Spotlight on Social Media and my presentation was specifically focused on Twitter for business.  Listening to the people at the event, it was clear that had the title been something more broad like Social Media 101, I would have had a much larger attendance.

I consider myself a student of social media and as such, believe that there are a number of layers to each social media tool available. I picked Twitter because I believe the opportunities are without limits and jump at the opportunity to talk about the benefits of Twitter and ways in which monitoring tools can dramatically improve the experience. I love to watch a naysayer begin to change their opinion and an advocate walk away with new ideas.

Scaling Caring... Do you care what your customers and prospects have to say?

Love this bit of advice given by the infamous @garyvee on "scaling caring." Hey marketers, if you give a crap, you need to listen to what people are saying about you, your brand, your business and your industry.

Businesses today need to understand the importance of listening as well as engaging with their customers and potential customers. This isn't hype. Don't turn your nose to Twitter and other vehicles for communication. You are only doing your company a disservice and opening the door for your competition to engage. But then again, we all make choices that we have to live with later. Use Twitter search! It is so simple. Do it now, just care!
