One Year Later: How Real Entrepreneurs are Using Twitter

Your Backstage Pass to Twitter was first held live nearly one year ago, in February/March 2009. For these brief audio interviews, I called clients that were in that initial course (and had no previous experience on twitter) to hear in their own words how they’ve used twitter one year later.

If you want to know how real small businesses are succeeding with twitter, listen in below.


Dinneen Diette’s Story

Dinneen was skeptical that she would see any results from twitter, but she surprised even me by how much she’s been able to use twitter to grow her business! Click play below to hear how she found a partner for a new program AND filled the seats using twitter!

Bobbi Palmer’s Story

While spending only minimal time on twitter, Bobbi has landed media recognition and clients. Bobbi’s story proves that you don’t need to spend hours a day or have tens of thousands of followers to make twitter work for your business.

    Well that was an interesting monologue to read. I think one more time through and I MIGHT understand it.

  14. ???? Says:

    This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
