What is Twitter?

  Twitter is a discovery channel

  Twitter presents itself as “The best way to discover what’s new in your world.”

  If Twitter was a TV channel, you and me will be the journalists that followers opt in to follow because we have the talent the curiosity, the passion and the skills to find, curate, and reveal (share) the most interesting stories in their world.

  For Stars Twitter is great tool to “tip” Journalists

How to be Successful on Twitter?

  If you have a twitter account, You should consider yourself as a journalist

  Twitter is not about you (your life or your business), as well as the newspaper or the TV channel is not about the journalist life or business.

  If you spend most the time talking about your business, your products, your life, your interests, then you are not anymore a journalist but a Star with fans.
