Made Any Money from using Twitter? How much?
April 25th, 2008 · Filed Under: Making Money with Twitter · Twitter
Marketers ask me if I’ve found the secret to blasting out ad messages to twitter users.
Many don’t get that it’s pretty near impossible to sell with “interruption messages” today.
But that doesn’t mean that no one is making money from Twitter relationships. The key difference is the motivation.
If you join twitter just to find buyers, people will avoid you. On Twitter, it’s so easy to unfollow or block an annoying person.
We’re now collecting stories like this one about a Real Estate agent that connected with a local person on Twitter and didn’t just say “got a property to list”.
That’s the secret.
Use twitter to network. Listen to the marketplace. Help people. Provide value. Do this on Twitter and pretty soon BINGO! Someone says, “Hey - you seem like a nice person to do business with!”
What’s your twitter MONEY story? Post a comment and let me know about high dollar deals and people making money by using Twitter so we can have a Twinterview with you or a follower for the Twitter Handbook.

Hey there CoachDeb,
What you’re saying about relationship marketing is right on the mark! It’s true everywhere, but especially true in the twitterverse. When I posted a few tweets about issues a coaching client was having, it struck a chord with a guy who was experiencing similar struggles. This man was not looking for a coach - but ended up hiring me because of his appreciation for my tweets. I believe I have barely scratched the surface on ways to use twitter in my practice!
fulfilling life’s purpose,
Lisa
