— Elizabeth KW (@LizzyRoseKnight) August 30, 2018
A2. The first thing to remember is do not automate your engagement in an inauthentic way. People can tell when you’re just copying/pasting a message
Once you’ve nailed that, dig into relevant hashtags or search terms. Find existing communities. #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/gfgXEcN1Mm
— Lisa
I like big gifs & I cannot lie (@lisaboylesmedia) August 30, 2018
A2. There are SO many tools available through #SMM that can target an ideal audience. Facebook ads have done a great job on pin-point accuracy when targeting those interested in your business. Twitter still needs a little work as far as location based targeting. #TwitterSmarter

— Cortez Brothers (@cortezbrothers) August 30, 2018
A2: The 2 most important I would say is 1) HASHTAGS! They are the heart beat to your tweet, and that is how your tweet can be seen my everyone! 2) The people you follow and the followers you are attracting. They should be within your industry! #twittersmarter

Digital Marketing Coach (@MadalynSklar) August 30, 2018

— Tristan Griffiths #ImTristanG (@ImTristanG) August 30, 2018
A3: Do something that no one else is doing. Find your lane. It's easier to be the best at something no one is doing than something that's already done.#twittersmarter

A3. All content needs to be relative. Know your audience, and give them relatable info. #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/9KJGPHwr6q
— Christopher Tompkins (@chrisgoagency) August 30, 2018

— Tamara (@itstamaragt) August 30, 2018
A3: Show people YOU, the person or team behind all of the efforts. •
Above all, I know that we should "always be closing" — but it never hurts to be nice to someone who might never convert into a client / customer. That ultimately says a lot about you

— Raquel Serrano
(@raquelserrano_) August 30, 2018

A3
Create, curate and interact consistently.
Repurpose your content for each channel.#TwitterSmarter https://t.co/jZy3w02yz1
— Alberto Gómez (@alberMoire) August 30, 2018
A3: Polls are good on Facebook and Twitter. I have had some success with question posts with multiple choice answers. It’s quicker and easier for someone to post A, B or C than to think up an response at times #TwitterSmarter
— Suze Cooper (@BigTentSocial) August 30, 2018
A3 : As context, my target audience is intersection of IT/Energy Industry … What I find works best is original 'interesting' picture/selfie/video in front of new tech, a cool location photo that's different … otherwise your post could get lost in the noise … #TwitterSmarter
— Kevin O'Donovan (@Kevin_ODonovan) August 30, 2018
A3: Perhaps not “innovative” any longer but…– join in on chats where you can contribute & meet new people– use videos in your tweets, or a picture, at least (not just a text)– be a guest on a chat or podcast, co-host (or host) a chat,#TwitterSmarter https://t.co/EwKSEVdfkX

— Shannah Hayley (@shannahhayley) August 30, 2018

— Christopher Tompkins (@chrisgoagency) August 30, 2018
A4: Good funnel maintenance. Know where your audience is at, give them what they need at each step to go from awareness to closing. @hubspot is our favorite for this.#TwitterSmarter

— Express Writers (@ExpWriters) August 30, 2018
A4: Play the long game. Don't instantly ask for sales. People will buy from you anyway if they like you. #TwitterSmarter
— Kristina Adams (@KristinaAuthor) August 30, 2018
A4: I just ask. You have their attention. Ask what was it you said that appealed to them (because there's so much more where that came from). #TwitterSmarter
— Shawn Paul Wood (@ShawnPaulWood) August 30, 2018
A4: Listen to their needs, provide them with value, provide them with offers, and have strong CTA's where applicable. #twittersmarter
— Tamara (@itstamaragt) August 30, 2018
A4: Having clear & concise CTA's that are easy to understand & follow. Don't go overly "salesy" with it. People don't want to be sold — But they are willing to buy. Make it intising to where they have F.O.M.O syndrome #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/JNObQw7S4m
— Eddie Garrison (@EddieGarrison) August 30, 2018
A4: Dont' be spammy, be relevant, be consistent & add value. Ensure your social content is either gated or has a clear CTA so that your efforts fit perfectly into your overall customer journey / experience. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/XIbeJQzZcU

— Nicole Osborne
#SweetLikeSocial (@Lollipop_Social) August 30, 2018
A4: We look at our social media feeds as a voice and brand rather than just a flow of information. When people hear our voice and lean in closer to hear more by following us, then we are on a road to a relationship (that then sometimes converts into a lead). #TwitterSmarter
— Cortez Brothers (@cortezbrothers) August 30, 2018
A4. Create or identify their needs, learn who they are and respond personally. Insert yourself with quality service through promotion of ideas and solutions. Be of #Value #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/mOLTcf7Ue3
— Dr. Dorrie Cooper (@sittingpretty61) August 30, 2018
A4: I really don’t look at social in terms of sales. Social is where I show what I do and love and I build and nurture relationships. Working this way I have had several leads and opportunities come my way #twittersmarter
— Suze Cooper (@BigTentSocial) August 30, 2018
A4: Give out something for free, such as tips, and ask them to sign up for more by visiting your website or subscribing to something you offer, then go from there. #TwitterSmarter

— Madalyn Sklar
Digital Marketing Coach (@MadalynSklar) August 30, 2018
A5 competitions are fantastic way to create even more user generated content however if you have a strong brand users will want to create it for you with no encouragement so concentrate on providing value as a #brand first !! #twittersmarter https://t.co/NgV6Pzs9IA
— Tristan Griffiths #ImTristanG (@ImTristanG) August 30, 2018
A5: If your business sells a tangible product you potentially give some followers free product and have them post it on social and RT. But if you sell intangibles then maybe you can look into testimonials and RT those! #TwitterSmarter
— kununu US (@kununu_US) August 30, 2018
A5. Use a competition to get it started. People are more receptive to sharing if they get something out of it. #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/y348ieYli7

— Lori Anding
Smallbiz Social Media Advocate (@southbaysome) August 30, 2018

A6: We pretty much run everything through @Apple and @Google ecosystems and @Sanebox keeps my inbox near zero. It easily sorts and prioritizes email so that my assistant can spend her time on more high value tasks. #TwitterSmarter

A6: @Crowdfire and @Triberr help us find quality content to share that gets great engagment, shares, and clickthroughs. We aren't about vanity here. We want results.

A6: Not necessarily a marketing tool, but a great one in general: CALENDARS! I love @sunsamaHQ because it allows me to add tasks, events, and reminders! It helps me better manage my social, graphic design and PR projects! #TwitterSmarter

#Twittersmarter a6 Using Tweetdeck & Hootsuite are great because you can have a column for hashtags and whether you use it for a chat like this or just monitoring your brand, it's easy to use.

A6: Most shceduling tools such as Hootsuite, Sprout, Buffer, etc. all have Social Listening modules. Keeping your eyes there will tell you who & where your best advocates are talking about your brand on Social Media #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/Vr10dwC4MF

A6: Of course I'm going to say @hootsuite when it comes to an integrated social marketing strategy, but in the name of shaking it up @answerthepublic is an awesome tool that really helps you understands questions being asked around particular topics! #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/pRXUvu4srS

A6: The go-tos would be GA (Google Analytics) and scheduling ones such as CoSchedule and Buffer. But another which we use for priority purposes is Trello! There are MANY more but these are my favorite..and they are cost effective (most are free)! #twittersmarter

A6: I'm finally in a place business-wise where I could invest in @CoSchedule! It's the drag-and-drop scheduler I always wanted
