Good list to think about a bit. I think that #2 is very crucial.
“#2 Build Trust
The more people interact with you, see what your character is made of, the more they will trust you.
Getting to know the human side of your business is a great way to build trust in yourself, your brand, and your business.”
Amanda,
Talking about Twitter, I am now following you. Great Paisley pattern template!
I see that your latest post is a recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownie Bar. Do you like dark chocolate?
Hi again! Hmmm, strange. In the previous comment, I get an avatar that belongs to “Telluride M”. Do you know why this happened?
Hi Martin, thanks for the Twitter follow. I prefer milk chocolate to dark chocolate any day. My husband is the opposite though.
I don’t know why the avatar is showing someone else. In the admin panel, it shows your pic beside all your comments. Very weird.
Great information on how Twitter can help you to gain exposure and build your brand. Twitter can be especially effective as part of a comprehensive social media campaign.
Hi Martin, I noticed that happening with the avatars once or twice here before. One time my avatar showed up on someone else’s comment — that’s why I remember it. Oh well, technology!

Cool ten reasons from smallbizbee. Shouldn’t miss this I think.
Amanda: Then I have tip for your husband on a good source for dark chocolate… Thanks for info. re. the avatar.
Anita: Yeah tech!
I still haven’t figured out Twitter. I am on it for both of my businesses, but there is a certain finesse that makes some business owners very successful with it, and some not. Also not a big fan of all the spam I get through it!
