This year I am starting a new column for the Group Coaching blog on BizTips. Many coaches continue to struggle from a business perspective. This is particularly true in the current economic climate. Keep posted for BizTips which will be posted on a semi-monthly basis to support you in a different aspect of your business success. Many of these topics are ones that I passionately have lectured on as a former Business Faculty Member, cover in the 90 DayBizSuccess program, and work around in the small business coaching work that I do.
This week's post is all about one of the latest social media crazes -- Twitter.
Wikipedia describesTwitter as:
" a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows its users to send and read other users' updates (otherwise known as tweets), which are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length".
If you've heard about twitter and are wondering what it might do for your business, here are some great web resources to get you started:
Duct Tape Marketing has produced a short Twitter for Business booklet which you can download here.

How are you using Twitter? What success stories do you have about it? What's the downside?
As always, please feel free to comment below. You can find me at Twitter at http://twitter.com/jennbritton.
Have a great week!
Warmly
