And people just like them exist in all social media realms. It would be so nice if, one day, they realized that doing that doesn't work very well (on Twitter, I can't imagine that it works at all, because, as Jon-Mikel said above, it's so obvious when someone is spamming on Twitter). In my dreams, all online marketers use the tactics that smart people like Chris teach. :) There are far too many of those spammers who just tweet the exact same message a million times in a row.

Twitter will help your site grow as long as you have something of value to offer. Spammers will be unfollowed and will all end up in a huge pool where they all follow each other and all their posts are automated. How fun for them. lol So true.

Even when a person is no longer a potential customer you still retain a relationship. After all you never know when you get a referral or useful tip. Also by helping others, not just selling, they try and help you in return. This blog is simple yet gets at the crux of social marketing. As pointed out the first thing is about making friends.

My niche is helping auto repair shop owners (who have a public trust poll percentage greater than my day job as a telemarketer) learn about the power of permission-based marketing and using social media to build trust. If you can tune out the hype of the the "buy me, but me" chatter it is a rich soil for planting the seeds of inclusion and relationship - and a good place to find and interact with like-minded souls. Perhaps at 59 years I will yet learn to dance... Thanks for the free lesson. Best wishes on (our) journey. Kenton Hey Chris,

Getting involved in social media is forming relationships with those you are connected with. They are people and thus in order for the relationship to survive and to grow, it has to be fed, such as continuing conversations, giving something of value (whether it be friendship, advice, or something greater). Many people get into social media without actually realizing the time and effort is takes to build up a strong following. Thanks for the post!
